Hello,
Hopefully someone can help. I don’t think the L2 cache is working on the secondary node.
Brief info on setup (homelab) – potentially using this type of setup for our customers to replace hyper-v replication. Anyway………
I’m running VSAN Free on a 2-node hyper-v cluster. MPIO is set to least queue depth to help balance the iscsi between nodes. I’ve got VM’s running on both hosts – no problems.
I’ve got L1 caching set on both hosts to 48gb.
I’ve L2 caching set on both hosts to 230GB (256GB NVME drives).
The main storage image file is on the D: drive (both hosts)
The Flash-cache image file is on the E: drive (both hosts)
On the screenshots Node 2’s flash cache is showing 0% usage, all the others are fine (Node 1’s L1 & L2, & Node 2’s L1)
Is there a way to see if it is being used or if there are any logs or files I can check to see if there is a problem? The cache file is there on the E: drive on Node 2 and I can write to the folder without any problems.
Any ideas?
Many thanks
