Hello Yaroslav, thanks for replies. What will be better for us in our scenario? 1) 1x100Gb - direct connect for SYNC 1x100Gb - direct connect for iSCSI 2) 2x25Gb - direct connect for SYNC 2x25Gb - direct connect for iSCSI I think 100Gb will be over-kill with iSCSI, but more slower links can perform ...

Hello, i picked Mellanox ConnectX-6 dualport 100Gb card. Is iSER the best oprtion for production according to https://www.starwindsoftware.com/resource-library/starwind-iser/ ? Does it work with direct cable connect between servers (SYNC+Storage) ? What NVMe-oF https://www.starwindsoftware.com/starw...

Can I use NVMe-oF in 2 node scenario just with direct connect 2x10Gb iface?

Hello,

it's good idea use NVMe L2 cache for RAID10 4x SSD SAS? Me I share this NVMe in same time with RAID10 10x 1TB SAS? How size L2 cache size?

Thanks, frufru

Hi Ivan,

I was interested in possible scenarios recommended by StarWind for production.

Thanks frufru

Hello guys,

does it make sense use NVDIMM (HPE Persistent memory) in 2 node hyperconverged scenario for caching?

Thanks for your thoughts, Frufru

Hello Guys,

Any news about LSFS? I'm still interested in, but I dont have balls to test it on my production infrastructure. Is rock stable? No mounting, growing issues?

Hello Michale,

on the recommendation of using the NVME SSD for L2 cache (but I do not know the NVME RAID1 hardware option here) can I use a dynamic disk RAID1 (mirror)? StorageSpaces mirror for NVME L2 cache?

Hello Michael,

in new L2 cache version is necessary to have L2 cache placed on RAID1 SSD´s? Can i use PCIe or single SSD for L2 withou RAID1? 2 node scenario. What happend when i lose single SSD withou RAID1?

Hi, any updates with L2 cache RAID0 scenario (2node HA)? What about performance? Stable? Thanks

Does it make sense to use L2 cache in this scenario? 3x (10x1TB SAS RAID0 ) ?

Hi Guys,
what about L2 cache with fixed disk in this build 8.0.8730 ? Is super stable and ready for 1hour SLA?

Performance issues are solved?

i need to know for sure ....

Hey Guys,

i plan to build 3node SW with flat disks and hyper-v on it. Which RAID level i should use on nodes for img files? Is JBOD or RAID0 sufficient/recommended or RAID10 is required?

Thanks

Hi Vitaliq,

RAID SSD configuration for L2 cache? RAID0? RAID1? Single PCIe SSD?

Thanks, frufru
