That's great!

Concerning the Windows 2012 server license : we would need to buy 2 copies (one for each VM).
Could you advise on which Windows 2012 edition would be the most basic (cheap) that we can use for this?

thx!

Hi,

We have 2 ESxi 5.5 Hosts.
- HP Proliant DL160 G8 server (1x Xeon E5-2620)
- HP Proliant DL360 G9 server (1x Xeon E5-2620 v3)

They are not identical, but similar.
It is possible to run the 2-nodes hyperconverged scenario on these?

Thx,
Thomas.

thx. I got it!

Okay thx.

Suppose I' have 2 ESxi hosts, each running some VM's of their local storage.
I would like to install Starwind (hyperconverged scenario)
Do I need to reorganize/move the present vmdk's on that local storage?

Hi, Thanks for your reply. I am also reading the technical papers and it is getting clearer to me. Can you confirm that I have it right my assumption : Case: hyperconverged scenario on Esxi, 2 nodes : Each host 'publishes' its local storage via an iSCSI storage adapter, so that the StarWind VM on th...

Hi, I am sorry but I still don't fully understand. I am looking for a way to sync/mirror the local storage of 2 ESxi hosts. Can you tell me if I am correct on these assumptions : - As I understand it, with StarWind Free, you can turn 2 servers into mirrored SANs. But then you still have 2 physical S...

Hi,

Can you explain to me what the free license can be used for, and what the difference is with my case?

Thx!

Hi, We have 2 ESXi 5.5 hosts (HP Proliant Servers), and a physical SAN which acts as shared storage for these hosts. We need to replace the SAN, and are thinking about VSAN instead of a new physical SAN. (We have a VMWare Essentials kit license) I can't seem to find a clear answer to these questions...
