just did an install with Starwind Techs last week. I booted servers up and am getting the error on both physical servers: The number of vSphere HA heartbeat datastores for this host is 0, which is less than required: 2. now i haven't done anything with the setup since the techs helped me get it up and running(side note, the support and techs for starwind are GREAT!!!!).

ESXI 6.5 on two physical servers, VM on each running win2008 R2 with starwind running on both.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!

Hello brianjmc1,
It means you don't have any heartbeat datastores configured.
I think the following links would be helpful:

Could you please confirm that StarWind Datastores are available after hosts start?
