Re: LSFS+HA = data corruption under high-load/high stress condit

It would be interesting to try and duplicate if LSFS is not used. I've set up (using powershell) a 2 node cluster with hyper-v and windows 2016 - I set up a single VM (a sybase server) and tried pulling the plug on one of the nodes - literally to simulate a server physically dying. The end result wa...

Entering Maintenance Mode for a device in C# and bug

Is there a way to do this in C#? I know how to do it in PS but there doesn't seem to be a method in the IDevice class to enter maintenance mode. Also, there is a bug in the C# method GetDeviceByID - the following code doesn't work but should: d.DeviceID returns some string like "0x000001D35A748...

Re: Starwind SAN device SyncStatus is null on one node

i fixed this by deleting the device and re-adding it. I'd like to know how this condition arose though, in the case the device was empty but if it wasn't I'm not sure what I would have done

Re: LSFS+HA = data corruption under high-load/high stress condit

Dumb question - how do you create (in powershell or C#) a device that is not LSFS? Is it true that if you DON'T put $secondNode.storageType = [StarWindFileType]::STARWIND_DD_FILE in the node creation script then LSFS will not be used? Since this is at the node level, does this mean you can't have so...

Re: Starwind SAN device SyncStatus is null on one node

Hi Boris, I just did that and there's no change - I think there is something wrong with that device on that node.. The swdsk file contains the following for this device which I don't think is correct (?) the device only has this value on the second node. ... <node id="2" name="iqn.200...

Starwind SAN device SyncStatus is null on one node

Hi - I'm running the free version, started from scratch on windows 2016 (2 node cluster) and created 3 devices per node. All three were created and synched according to the CreateHA powershell script. When I run a script that enumerates all the targets/devices on node 2 everything looks ok, all devi...
