Hello, I need some help with an issue I'm experiencing with StarWind Virtual SAN. I'm running a two-node configuration for high availability, but I'm encountering a synchronization failure between the nodes. The storage on the secondary node seems to be stuck in the "Syncing" state, and no new data is being replicated from the primary node.
Has anyone encountered this issue before? Any suggestions on what could be causing the failure or how to resolve it? Should I check specific configurations or settings, or is there a particular diagnostic tool within StarWind that could help pinpoint the problem?

Was there any outage? This can be helpful https://knowledgebase.starwindsoftware. ... may-start/. Please also see if there were any signs of latency events (look for "to 3 from" entries in the logs and see any signs of the delay before it).
Please wait for synchronization to complete.

Dear Sir,
My SAN server has 12 hard drives. 2 Raid1 drives to install OS esxi, so do I need to create 2 more raid1 drives to install OS Starwind? Or can I install OS Starwind on the same drive as OS esxi.

You can deploy StarWind VSAN VM OS disk on the DS where you have the OS.
