starlvm plugin doesn't seem to work in HA

[6stringt3ch]

I've created a two node cluster recently. I followed this documentation in order to get the plugin installed. individually, I'm able to start/stop VMs on each host, migrate to other storage mediums, etc. but as soon as I configure the HA rule for a VM and try to boot it, it complains saying the storage doesn't exist. not seeing anything here in the forums nor in the documentation regarding this plugin being supported in HA. can anyone confirm if it does or doesn't work?

Welcome to StarWind Forum. Could you please tell me your current Proxmox version?
Please stick to non-plugin shared storage for now. We are investigating this issue.

we are using PVE 9.2.3

Could you please also share the name of the plugin installer that you used?
Also, what is the underlying storage for the plugin (e.g., iSCSI target, FC, NVMe-oF, etc)?
Thanks!

we installed starwind-proxmox-plugin-pve9
we are using iscsi with pure storage arrays configured with multipath on the proxmox nodes

Thanks for your update!
I've filed the request with the dev team. Is there any chance of recreating the LUNs without the plugin?

I have done this as well and it works well with HA. We are in the process of migrating away from VMware and are moving low priority workloads over to this Proxmox cluster but we are really looking for this plugin to work with HA as it is really helping us from having to eat up additional storage just for snapshots.

The new and better version is there. Please update the plugin.
