Hello! Do you have manuals for v6 StarWind iSCSI HA for vSphere 5? Where can i get it? Espeshially interesting Backup for ESXi server. Thank you in advance.

Thank you, I have resolve this problem. I put scripts in sheduler on startup in VMs where Starwind is running. The details is here http://communities.vmware.com/thread/405529?tstart=0

You have created the HA device with StarWind installed inside VMs and connected that device to the same ESXi servers that host the VMs. Am I right? I have three physical servers with esxi 5 hosts, where VMVsphere 5 and HA cluster installed. On the first host I have vcenter 5 and users VM with datas...

Could you tell please, will be any option in verssion 5.9 for automaticly rescan of iSCSI software adapter in esxi 5 hosts after power down. For time beeing if both esxi 5 hosts, where starwin installed, will be rebooted, the iSCSI software adapter will not be foud till manual rescan and as result H...

Hi! I'm running StarWind 5.8.2013 on two Windows 2008 R2 Storage Server. After hosts reboot vcenter 5 do not automaticly scans iscsi software adapter and do not see HA storage. Only after manual rescan of iscsi software adapter, HA storage becoms available. Please help where and what in vcenter adva...

Auto restore is disabled in current 5.9 beta build by Dev team for debug purposes.
I'm sorry for misleading.

Ok, can I get 5.9 beta with enabled restore option? For me important test how it works after power down.

Yes it is normal if you are using write-back cache and pressed reset button or performed force shutdown. This case the data in RAM are lost. In case of WT or no-caching configuration synchronization should start. Ok I had try. The results below: Write-through cashing configuration - automatik sunch...

Could you please give link on document where can i reed how HA storage system should start work? after power down on both hosts? Becourse now after power down? HA storage do not start automaticly synchronisation and not starts synchronisation manualy synccannotstart.gif Only command "Mark as Sy...

Do you have some other disk activity on the physical disks of these ESX servers? It looks like you are getting real disk performance when the cache is full. Low disk performance can be caused by some other activities on the hard disk that is not related to StarWind virtual device. In this case hard...

In most cases fast sync causes random disk access, while full sync - sequential. Synchronization speed depends on hard disk speed, but not only the network interface speed. It varies depending on the access block size (4K, 8K, ... 64K, 128K ...). Cache synchronization is fast, because the underlayi...

Hello! Why network speed of sunchronization proccess depend of HA device cache parameters? For sample if set create HA with no cashe parameter, the synchronization network speed will keep 20% of 1Gbit net(firs graf on scrinshot). If set create HA with write-back cahe 64Mb maximum cashe size, the net...

Please make sure that all HA nodes has the latest 5.9 StarWind service. Also please make sure that you are using proper StarWind Management Console. In case you are managing StarWind servers remotely, you should use the management console 5.9.2025 (it is a part of the latest beta build). Yes all no...
