StarWind Software

Hi guys,

i did a fresh install with Version 8.5 on two Windows Server 2019 machines. After setup both nodes and creating 2 HAImages, i did a failovertest. I did a restart of the second node. After the reboot was completed, the HAImages shown as synchronized, but i am no longer able to configure the second Node.

As well using the management console to connect as trying to add a HAImage with the second node as a replication partner, the error message is the same.

Connection failed
Starwind Service not found on Host "hostname" : 3261

Any ideas?

Cheers,
Peter

Additional Info:

Node_1 netstat-na

TCP 172.16.44.24:139 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING

Node_2 netstat-na

TCP 172.16.44.25:139 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING
TCP 172.16.44.25:3260 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING

Something seems to be wrong with the service itself. A reboot and also running the SMI-S Agent again does not help.

Cheers,
Peter

Solution:

- Disconnect 2nd Node as a replication partner for all HA Volumes
- Re-Install Starwind on Node_2
- Delete all legacy valumes, first from Management Console, Second from Disks
- Re-Add the 2nd Node as a Replication Partner for the HA-Volumes

Now it's working, even after a reboot. Don't know where the error was.

But it's solved.

Cheers,
