Hi,
I have configured a target connected to a vhd file where I have all the data.
Now I'm trying to connect from 2 servers to that target and get it, but if I write from a server, I dont see these changes from the other. That is what I must be doing wrong?
They are about 3 servers W2K8 R2 Standard and one of them I have installed the StarWind software.

A shame, what I had thought is to do without cluster, ie widnows Server 2008 R2 with StarWind and create two targets connected two existing VHDs with the data and connect to the other servers.
Thanks Anton

You can do it. But not with NTFS, FAT or say EXT3. MelioFS or SFS or OCFS2 will work just fine.

Hello Anton
I appreciate your answers, Worst not clear to me how to do what I need with StarWind without a cluster. You see it clearly?
