If you have already applied the free licence, there should not be any "timebombs".

Re: License type modification

You are welcome! :) But how about the rest questions? :lol: For 12585, you will lose GUI after 30 days when using Evaluation -> Free. I don't plan to wait for evaluation expiration (will come at Dec 31). As I wrote above, I simply modified a registering info by loading a Free Lic Key and now I have...

I've got two license files, one is an Evaluation and another one is Free. And I change it from one to another and back without any reinstall...

Re: How to retrieve HA Device Serial-Id via powershell?

While going with the serial ID the suggested way should be fine, I'd rather prefer working with the target names, for which StarWindX is able to output information. But this can be merely a matter of preference though. It's more comfortable to use target names of course but not in this case. All I ...

Re: How to retrieve HA Device Serial-Id via powershell?

What's your use case that might require this information? The Starwind presents its devices to iSCSI clients by this Id. For example, to the ESXi. Starwind view: https://i.ibb.co/pz91kGz/sw-serial-2.png ESXi view: https://i.ibb.co/SnZw7cy/sw-serial-2-esxi.png If I've got several devices to add (esp...

Re: How to start a sync from "Waiting for automatic syncronization" state via powershell?

And P.P.S. finally, just for the information. This is the answer from our pre-sale engineer. $server.ExecuteCommand( 0, "restoreHAPartnerNode", $params) – unsupported anymore and will be deleted from the StarwindX module soon. This was the reason why your first script wasn't working. You m...

Is it possible to collect logs from nodes and send them to us?
You can use this tool.
Thank you, I collected the logs and noticed my sale manager, waiting for RnD recommendations. I'll drop the line with results here.

Hello Boris! Have a look at GetHASyncState.ps1 - I believe what you need is the following fragment: if ( $syncState -eq "3" ) { # # Device not synchronized. Synchronize current node from partner # Write-Host "Device not synchronized. Synchronize current node from partner '$($partnerTa...
