Re: VSAN Free, 3 nodes, one node is synchronized

Just an update - I managed to solve this problem. 1) updated each node to the latest build (btw the latest build moves *.swdsk files into Starwind\headers\storage and modifies the starwind.cfg file) 2) shut down the starwind service on all nodes after turning off all my VMs (and backing up religious...

Re: VSAN Free, 3 nodes, one node is synchronized

As an update to where I am with this, it's not a MAC address mixup - spent a few hours mapping out all the addresses and everything is good. I ended up using removeHAPartner on node2 (node 3 is synched, node 1 and 2 are not) and tried to just get node 1 to sync from node 3 by using restoreHAPartnerN...

Re: VSAN Free, 3 nodes, one node is synchronized

yes I can ping all the vms, they are all residing on node 3 since that's the only one that's synchronized.

Did you see my screenshot? Does that look correct?

Re: VSAN Free, 3 nodes, one node is synchronized

Hi Yaroslav - this is a windows system. I can ping all the nodes from every other node using the 3 links specified for each storage section in the swdsk files on each node. Here is a screenshot of the swdsk files from each node, overlapping so you can see them side by side showing the priorities in ...

Re: VSAN Free, 3 nodes, one node is synchronized

Hi Yaroslav - I'm sorry I still don't understand the how the priorities are mixed up if 0 is the "highest". The only node that is synchronized (node 3) is set to priority 0 as you stated is correct. The other two nodes are set to priority 2 (node 2) and priority 1 (node 1). Both Node 1 and...

Re: VSAN Free, 3 nodes, one node is synchronized

Hi - thanks for the response - the network is fine, I checked all the links to and from all three nodes. I've read that post before and I don't understand something about it, are larger priority numbers higher priority? My node 3 that has priority 0 (which is the one that's synchronized) is that inc...

VSAN Free, 3 nodes, one node is synchronized

Hi- I have a 3 node system and one node is working and synchronized. I had a multiple switch failure and the other 2 nodes are not synchronized but won't sync. Trying to run the script syncDeviceAdvanced.ps1 from either of the 2 unsynchronized nodes reports that "200 Failed: connection with one...

Re: Synchronization issue in new 3 node cluster

Hi Yaroslav - thanks for responding. I removed the cache and so far it appears to be working, after creating from scratch I tried the same thing (turning off a node) and it appears to be synchronizing after rebooting. Just so I understand can you explain why having a write-back cache defined caused ...

Synchronization issue in new 3 node cluster

Hi - I created a test 3 node cluster using the exact number of NICs/IPs as the example on the starwind site. Everything was working normally and there were no issues during creation. I tried to simulate a single node failure by rebooting the physical server (Node 1). Now I'm in a state where Node 2 ...
