Yeah, I guess having so much experience makes you a really valuable member of the team (I am happy they have one ;D).
Good luck with your project. Let me know if you need anything else.

Rescan is event-triggered, not time-triggered. There's a logwatcher file (not a *.ps1). Check it out.
We do not expect our users to alter it, though, unless there is any strong need for it.

Oh, that's tough then
Good luck with your project.

Beta is only for labs. I guess that's why it is beta still
You are always welcome. From what I see in a different thread, you have a perpetual key. If you have an active support contract, let us open a support ticket.

"trialing the solution to improve the early experience"? Trial comes with GUI experience and you can reach out to the account manager for tech assistance. If you hold the perpetual license with an active support contract, you can get support :D With POC too. https://www.starwindsoftware.c...

Fingers crossed
Good luck with your project.

Yup. This might not fix the issue, as it could be just related to drivers. If your backup software allows for something like instant recovery, you could do it for cross-hypervisor conversion to test my idea about the drivers. If the VM does not boot after converting with a different tool, there's so...

From what I know, it is better to use starlvm due to all that snapshot-oriented text above.

p.s. I strongly recommend trialing the solution to improve the early experience with VSAN. It cannot be converted to Free, but at least you get some tech help.

Using DAC for data and SYNC is our most preferred design.

The plugin allows taking snapshots of your VMs using thin LVM. The default thin LVM supports shared LVM, yet does not allow for snapshots. LVM-THIN, in turn, does support the snapshots but does not support the shared LVM. AFAIK, that module uses one thin LVM pool for all VMs. The plugin allows for d...

When creating the VM, it is possible to create a GEN1 or GEN2 VM. Recreate that VM using the existing disks as GEN1. More on VM generations here https://www.nakivo.com/blog/hyper-v-generation-1-vs-2/ What I am also thinking is that the drivers (e.g., VMware tools) could be there, preventing the VM f...

Hi,

StarWind VSAN does not team or add up the bandwidth of the NICs dedicated to DATA or Replication. An extra NIC will serve only for redundancy.
While it does not really matter, I'd suggest adding it for replication.

p.s. consider joining NVMe-oF beta

Thanks for sharing your experience.

Hi,

Yes, sadly, you can't create QCOW on top of StarWind HA LUN.
We are working on it (thanks for pointing).

Welcome to StarWind Forum!
That's because of drivers.
Also, try GEN1 VM and connecting that disk as VHD to IDE controller.
