Re: 2-Node cluster, Starwind storage not available on either host, Help!

Fonzies50 - this thread saved my bacon last month so I'll try to pay some of it forward. Couple things jump out from your screenshots. Your situation is actually different from mine in one important way. When I had my outage BOTH nodes were unsynchronized and storage was down everywhere - that's the...

Re: 2-Node cluster, Starwind storage not available on either host, Help!

Great tip, we will explore disabling that write back cache. Thank you. I think we may have found the root cause of the issue. Recovery via MarkAsSynchronized() in SyncHaDevice.ps1 worked; full sync to the partner is running now. Thanks for that, appreciated very much. StarWindService.exe crashed twi...

Re: 2-Node cluster, Starwind storage not available on either host, Help!

As soon as I clean out my pants, I hope to have a refreshing weekend. Contacted sales to explore a purchase, this was a test to see how well it worked vs. our prior setup just using Hyper-V replication. All seemed great until it wasn't. This customer appears to have frequent power issues, the APC UP...

this was GOLD, thank you:

For Free version, you can mark the device as synchronized with the script.
1. Open SyncHADevice.ps1,
2. comment $device.Synchronize([SwHaSyncType]::SW_HA_SYNC_FULL, "")
3. uncomment #$device.MarkAsSynchronized()

2-Node cluster, Starwind storage not available on either host, Help!

Hi all, Sorry for the "Help!" but we are in a pinch. We have a 2-node cluster that has been working fine for months. No hardware issues, but woke this AM and while the two nodes are up the storage is offline and therefore all the customer VMs are down. Both nodes say unsynchonized. We're a...

Re: StarWind VTL Immutable?

OK, to make sure I understand, StarWind VTL does not provide immutability, but rather the cloud target you land it on. So if you use Amazon or a provider that supports locking it is immutable, but if you use it with a cloud provider that doesn't support the full S3 feature set and doesn't have file/...

StarWind VTL Immutable?

Hello all, We have a customer using Veeam v10 backing up to StarWind VTL. They then send a copy to Azure. They want both the onsite and Azure copy to be immutable. Does StarWind VTL support immutability? Veeam supports the immutability feature in v11 when using an Linux XFS repository, however the o...
