V8 Free: Is Async replication included?

craggy · Tue Mar 18, 2014 5:40 pm

With the imminent release of V8 we are thinking of replacing a Nexenta CE box with Starwind.

One thing we would really like is some kind of backup of our storage pool. I know HA is a premium feature but is the new Async replication also a paid addon or is it enabled in the V8 free version?

We just need a replica of our data in-case our SAN fails, doesn't need to be Active/Active HA or anything like that.

We`ll provide all the needed licensing related information on the Release Date, but for now, let it be our little secret

Asynchronous Replication is a paid add-on and is not included for free with a StarWind Virtual SAN Free. Please see:

If you have any licensing questions please ask your sales rep. It's not something we're happy to discuss on public (sales hate engineers for doing that). Sorry about that

Good luck!
