Hi,

testing StarWind Virtual SAN Free (V8 Build 14398_R13) on two VMs running on Hyper-V. Using 3 virtual netwok adapters with those subnets:

- management: 172.21.3.0/24
- synchronization: 192.168.233.0/24
- hearthbeat: 192.168.234.0/24 and 172.21.1.0/24

After running CreateHA_2.ps1, synchronization never completes and always stay at 0%.

Already tested pings between:

172.21.3.17 <-> 172.21.3.25
192.168.233.48 <-> 192.168.233.49
192.168.234.48 <-> 192.168.234.49

Any ideas where is the problem?

Thanks for your question. Do you have iSCSI File Server role installed?

Greetings,

This is what causing the problem. Please uninstall it. See a similar problem here https://forums.starwindsoftware.com/vie ... ver#p33433

Great, It worked!

For the record, it was necessary to uninstall "iSCSI Target Server" only.

Thanks for helping.
