how then I can put it to maintenance mode ?
There is a script there. The Free Windows-based installation also comes with GUI solely for monitoring purposes. You need to use StarWindX scripts there too.
(luns which not exist any more but console see some info = which i crated before for testing and deleted ) - they still exist in StarWind.cfg on one node - how i can clean that ?
Make sure that the restart precautions are followed (HA devices are synchronized and connected over iSCSI in MS iSCSI initiator)
1. Stop the starwind-virtual-san.service on one node once synchronization is over
2. Make a copy of StarWind.cfg.
3. remove the old entries from the *.cfg. under <devices> and <targets>
4. Start the service.
5. Wait for fast sync to complete.
6. Check if HA devices are connected over iSCSI from both nodes.
7. Repeat for the remaining VM.
so I have to detach all Iscsi connections before each planned shutdown ?
Yes, but you can try this
Code: Select all
$StarWind = 'SW-HCA-VM-01' #specify your StarWind VM (or host) ip-address
#Getting StarWind devices in to "Maintenance Mode"
Import-Module StarWindX
try
{
$server = New-SWServer -host $StarWind -port 3261 -user root -password starwind
$server.Connect()
write-host "Devices:" -foreground yellow
foreach($device in $server.Devices){
if( !$device ){
Write-Host "No device found" -foreground red
return
} else {
$device.Name
$disk = $device.Name
if ($device.Name -like "HAimage*"){
$device.SwitchMaintenanceMode($true, $true)
write-host "$disk entered maintenance mode"
} else {
write-host "$disk is not an HA device, maintenance mode is not supported"
}
}
}
}
catch
{
Write-Host $_ -foreground red
}
finally
{
$server.Disconnect()
}
on both windows hyper-v this disks are offline after switching hyper-v cluster of from cluster console
Is any easy way to just shutdown properly storage providers with free release ?
As a side note, Cluster disks have their thresholds for coming online. Please bring them up manually in Failover Cluster manager.
Make sure they are connected from the synchronized node.
P.s. You can always edit the post so it is easier to reply to the request.
