Barry: I think the remove of the iscsi is restricted in the license file. If you have iscsi on an older version of Starwind 8 you will have it on a newer version of Starwind 8 using your old license, I sat up my homelab with iscsi on the free version of Starwind VSAN before the changed the policy, a...

Do you have any plans for a beta on the vvols solution you have as a preview?

I had same problem when I tried it first time. My problem was that I had a routing problem. I hadn't isolated the iscsi network with jumboframes and some traffic was sometimes routed on my normal vlan that didn't have jumboframes.
The vmfs then got corrupted when I did some heavy stuff.

I performed an upgrade of my homelab wich has a one node starwind vsan. First I upgraded the starwind managment console on my pc, and then I upgraded the SAN. The upgrade went OK, just a next, next finish install. It restarted the servicec and the 2 LSFS devices I had with 70GB and 9GB L1 cache and ...

That was another scenario with esx reboot. I see this is after a starwind reboot. I guess there is some locking issue. You could look at this kb http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1004033 it might be the problem. I know there has bee...

Sorry I often mix up the names of solarwinds and starwind. It was starwind of course. I found a solution to get the disk to get up after a rebbot. I added a line to /etc/rc.local.d/local.sh on the esxi: (until nc -z <ipadress of starwind iscsi-target> 3260; do sleep 15;done;sleep 60;until esxcli sto...

Could you please describe this in more detail One problem I have had is when rebooting the system (taking down th san vm last) is that I have to remove the VM's on the SAN from inventory before I reboot, if not I can't access the volumes. I have tried to remove the VM's from the inventory and do a ...

Yes I have seen that paper. I now have started with a 1 node solution. As I don't have a UPS at moment and its just for a homelab. When I get a proper UPS I'll test the 2-node HA What I have done so far is to install vsphere 6.0 on the mainserver on the 16GB usb flash and with vcenter vcsa on the lo...

I found out that it wouldn't download the image from that url. I downloaded it manually and pointed to the iso and now it installed, but I had to go into the console of the vm and accept installing the starwind software. Another problem I had was that when I try to edit settings in the vsphere web g...

I tried using the image that was in the wizard and that failed with same result
