Powershell + Starwind VSAN for Vsphere

kaderb · Thu Apr 14, 2022 1:59 pm

Hi Guys,

It's perhaps a silly question, but I prefer ask .

Is it possible to use Powershell with Starwind for Vsphere?

The main reason to do that is to avoid using a windows server.

Thanks !

Regards

Kader

Greetings,

Welcome to StarWind Forum and thanks for your question.
Yes. Please install the StarWindX module on any Windows10 PC or VM that has a connection to the VM.

Thanks , Great news!
I want to use a free licence applied to the VSA Starwind for Vsphere (linux) and configure it with powershell.

You confirm again?

Greetings,

Yes, it is doable. You need to install StarWind Management Console and Integrated Component Library to your Windows machine and run the script from there.

Hi Guys !

I have tried to configure 3-nodes of VSAN for Vsphere by powershell with no success

I'm facing an

Invalid channel format [2]

The Iscsi ans the Sync connection are direct connected.

I have followed this technical paper : https://www.starwindsoftware.com/resour ... e-vsphere/

Here's my modified script :

Hi,

Please make sure to add the correct interfaces. It might appear that you are typing the "local" IP addresses where the script implies the partner IP addresses to be listed.

kaderb · Mon Apr 25, 2022 3:12 pm

Hi Yaroslav,

Thanks for this quick answer.

My 3 servers are directly connected for sync ans iscsi ports and for each server .

FOr each server, i have put for Sync and HB is partner.

Perharps my syntax is not good?

For instance, the first node :
$syncInterface=$("#p2={0}:3260;#p3={1}:3260" -f $addr_sync_2_21,$addr_sync_3_23)
$hbInterface=$("#p2={0}:3260;#p3={1}:3260" -f $addr_iscsi_2_11,$addr_iscsi_3_13)
I want that the result of $syncInterface are : "172.16.21.20","172.16.23.30" and for $hbInterface : 172.16.11.20 , 172.16.13.30

Is that correct?

Regards

Kader

Greetings,

There is indeed a problem with syntax.
Please fill in the gaps of the script and make sure to type PARTNER IP addresses, not LOCAL ones.

All is configured.
Anyway the devices still not synchronized and I don't understand why.

Could you kindly tell me if the initial synchronization was ever completed? Please also show the script that you used.
