I have seen that the latest StarWind VSAN Version 8.0.20082.0 has been pulled from the update page. I updated to that version, should I be concerned?

Thanks
Eren

Hi,

I have seen that there is a new StarWind VSAN Update.
My infrastructure is working well so far.

My question is:
Should I update as soon as there is a new version or maybe wait some time for potential bugfix releases?

Edit: I am on OVF Build 15260 and want to update to 15469.

Thank you!

Hello Yaroslav,

just wanted to give you the feedback that everything went fine, sync took 16 hours for 71TB over 2x 10GBit Fiber connection.
Update of StarWind went also fine

Best wishes

Let me know if you have questions on tailoring the script.

Apologies, missed it! Will check it out, thanks much!

Greetings, You wrote that there is a script to limit sync speed. Which script exactly is for bandwidth limitation? By setting it to 5% you can limit the sync speed so that VMs are likely to get more I/O and the performance hit of full sync on slow storage should become moderate. Okay, but which of ...

Thanks Yaroslav. I will do a full sync over the weekend and see. I will also update to the latest StarWind Version. I have two more questions: - You wrote that there is a script to limit sync speed. Which script exactly is for bandwidth limitation? - I have read that StarWind supports Sync Journal. ...

Hello,

I have an urgent problem.
After I rebooted one node, StarWind went into full sync. The performance is extremely degraded and I can barely start up VMs.
I made sure to shut down all VMs and put one Node into maintenance mode.

How can I stop full sync? It says it will take 15 days!

Thanks

Thank you Yaroslavl!

Hi, so I'm planning to my very first StarWind VSAN for Hyper-V Update on 2 nodes. Version V8 (build 14398) ---> Version V8 (build 15020) I already read the manual: https://knowledgebase.starwindsoftware.com/guidance/upgrading-from-any-starwind-version-to-any-starwind-version/ And also watched a vide...

Hello again, I've been trying to add a second SSD to my StarWind Config but it's not properly loading it. I already followed this guideline to the letter but have been unsuccessful so far: https://knowledgebase.starwindsoftware.com/guidance/661/ Maybe it's not possible to add a second SSD at all? I ...

An additional synchronization link does not provide performance boost but just network interface redundancy.

Thank you very much yaroslav, the setup is working without any issues for over a month.

Kind regards
Eren

Greetings, Please keep me posted. Hello Yaroslav, first of all thank you very much for your suggestions and sorry for the late response, I didn't have time to check for a while. As you requested: After disabling and setting your recommended parameters, I unfortunately do still have the stall but ma...

HA_swdsk: Would you be kind enough to point me to the files location? It should be in the same directory as the img. In StarWind Management Console, see the path to the files. As for my question regarding iSCSI Initiator, your guideline shows multiple iSCSI targets added in the iSCSI inititiator wh...
