StarWind Software

someone has setup Starwind Management Console for Windows on a 2 node hyper-v with 1 VM (about 100 Gig)

unfortunately one virtual disk corrupted and turned RAW then some support people made numerous changes to the cluster in the Windows Failover Cluster Manager somehow removed all the virtual disks in Windows Disk Managment the and the iscsi targets cannot connect.

To complicate matters further the initial setup was done during a starwind trial so now cannot connect to the GUI to configure.

my questions are,

1. Do I need the paid version or can I use the free version for this setup?
2. if i can use the free version how would I remove the paid version without losing the starwind config?

thanks in advance

now I see free version is command line only after 30 days,

the 2 virtual disks are lost in disk managment

is there a way in starwind to get them back?

any help would be appreciated

thanks

Yes, StarWind free version is GUI-less after 30 days.
You can manage StarWind devices by modifying the scripts available in StarWindX library: C:\Program Files\StarWind Software\StarWind\StarWindX\Samples\powershell.
