Re: How to monitor remotely?

You can use enumDevicesTargets.ps1 example and check for the SyncStatus property of an HA device. 1 stands for "synchronized", 2 for "synchronizing", 3 for "non-synchronized".
Let me know if you need more information.

Re: Move VTL free key to other server

It's being prepared at the moment. Going to be published soon, from what I know. At the moment, you would use sample scripts to adjust them to your needs.

Re: Getting VTL Free working

Scott,

Is there a chance to get your logs for further investigation? You can upload them to your file sharing portal of choice and PM me the link to the download.
By the way, if your build is not the latest one, I would recommend to upgrade to the latest build, as there were some fixes added there.

Re: Complete HA creation with StarwindX

In the latest build you have the AddHAPartner.ps1 sample script that allows adding a partner to the already existing disk. Feel free to adjust it as needed.

Re: Add a new ISCSI target with current VirtualSUN Free Licence?

Jan,

You would need to adjust an example script from the StarWindX Powershell samples folder in your StarWind installation path. There is a script called CreateHA*.ps1. Just select your scenario and adjust the parameters as needed.

Re: switch primary/secondary priority syncronization?

StarWind VSAN uses active-active replication, so there is no notion of primary/secondary. If you feel I might have misunderstood the question, just provide me with more information regarding it.

Re: Starwind for vSphere - Underlying device response time

How are NVMe drives utilized by the StarWind VMs? Are they configured as pass-through or have you created VMDKs on top of those disks?

Re: ISCSI volumes with SSD Offload

I guess what you meant by a 100 GB SSD offload was L2 caching. If so, you would need to perform the following steps: 1. Create an HA disk or required size with "Create HA(two nodes).ps1" 2. On one of the nodes, create a standalone disk of 100GB and do not attach it to target. Use CreateIma...
