I have recently upgraded Starwind vSAN to version 8.0.12585. I have a 3-node vSphere cluster on 6.7 (not update 1).

Since upgrading Starwind to the latest version I can no longer see the datastores hosted by SWvSAN. I have removed all dynamic and static targets and confirmed that adding them back populates the device list. I see all targets and devices. The datastore no longer mounts.

Thoughts or ideas on this?

Thanks,
Chris

Could you please give us more details about the networking configuration you have?
Could you please also check if you do not have network ports binding on ISCSI and Sync channels?

From a networking perspective, nothing has changed. The ESXi configuration has not changed. The ONLY thing that has changed this time around is Starwind. If I load a VMware Workstation snapshot prior to the upgrade, everything comes up without issue.

As far as networking configuration, what would you like to know?

Please check if network port bindings are not configured for ISCSI. And remove if you have them.
Did you try to rescan datastores manually?
