further update on this.... if i run synchadeviceadvanced.ps1 it just says Synchronizing 0% continuously

Hi All, I have the free version of Starwind built as a DR / Test cluster. Last week (as luck would have it while I was on holiday) we had a problem with the UPS that the servers were connected to and a total power outage. I've fired up both servers and whilst HAImage1 says it is synchronizing and no...

Scratch that I was being stupid again !

Hi again... right sorry both volumes setup on both servers. I can see the disk in disk manager and even format it.
I can't however add it to my cluster for reasons that I don't understand.

Any ideas ?

Ahhhh well that seemed to do the trick, many thanks for your help. The link you shared only seems to talk about the config from a Gui point of view. It would be great if you or someone could show a sample script with some notes against each bit explaining what needs to go where. It does get very con...

ugh... tried changing them to $syncInterface="#p2=192.168.0.1:3260" -f $addr2, $hbInterface="#p2=192.168.10.200:3260,192.168.0.5:3260" -f $addr2, and $syncInterface2="#p1=192.168.0.2:3260" -f $addr, $hbInterface2="#p1=192.168.10.201:3260,192.168.0.6:3260" -f $...

Well, initial signs were good I've got disks created on both servers but the Synchronising bit just basically says 0% on repeat... so it would seem the sync address isn't right.

Ok, so I now have 2 servers with 3 network connections, configured thus; SERVER1; NIC1 (LAN) - 192.168.10.200 /24 NIC2 (DIRECT LINK) - 192.168.0.1 /30 NIC3 (DIRECT LINK) - 192.168.0.5 /30 SERVER2; NIC1 (LAN) - 192.168.10.201 /24 - LAN NIC2 (DIRECT LINK) - 192.168.0.2 /30 - For Starwind Sync NIC3 (DI...

Hi Yaroslav, thanks for the reply. Sorry I'm confused (as always). I have a LAN adapter setup with both nodes connected to a switch - 192.168.10.0 /24 I have another adapter which links the two servers together - 192.168.0.0 /30, is this not what is being used for the iscsi targets, if not what is i...

Hi, yes being thick! All sorted now thanks.

Ok, so I took a guess at rerunning the createHA2 script but this time changing the image name to Quorum and the size to something sensible (1GB). The disk and sync process seemed to work fine but now my iscsi initiator won't connect and I have no disks. I can see both disk images on both servers but...

Hi All,

I need to add a quorum to my cluster can I add an additional disk and if so how.. Or should i simply create an SMB share somewhere and point it at that?
Kind regards,

Paul.

Hi, hopefully a quick question... When I do a Get-devices I get a long list of devices that I previously setup but have subsequently removed (whilst playing around with settings etc).
Is there a way of cleaning out the old devices so I can start with a clean slate?

thanks in advance,

Paul.

Hi Guys, I'm in need of some step by step for dummies guidance please. I sort of get what's needed and even managed to get a 2GB volume up and connected by use of the CreateHA_2.ps1 file. I don't know if there is a guide somewhere but did I mention it needs to be simple for my simple brain :-). Ok s...

ok ... I made a guess and was able to create some volumes and have them sync. I've now made some mods and started again... I've specified 24TB in size e.g. $size=24000000 which has created the drives... but now it's just saying Synchronizing 0% repeatedly. If it's just going to take some time then t...
