Hey Guys,

Issue:
So about a month ago I had an instance where the 2 SOFS servers (running star wind VSAN free on them) services froze for my 2tb disk. But my SOFS and Hyper-V witness were both working without issue. So I rebooted the servers and there was data corruption so I had to restore from backups. Then Friday night for maintenance and updates I restarted one server and the ISCSI initiator failed to initialize on the paired server because starwind showed that the Device was not synced; so I marked it active and we're now working (had to restore from backups.) I'm not really sure what's going on.

Hi everybody.
We have new update for community.
After system(iSCSI connections, etc) and StarWind(latest version installed) reconfiguration the issue has been resolved.
