Unable to create 2-node HA device on Proxmox

[gab007]

Hello,

I am testing StarWind Virtual HCI Appliance Free with Proxmox.

I deployed two StarWind VHCA/CVM nodes running StarWind V8 build 15260:

- SW1: 10.42.100.4
- SW2: 10.42.100.5

I installed the latest available StarWind Windows package on my administration workstation to use the PowerShell Management Library / StarWindX module.

I am trying to create a 2-node HA device using CreateHA_2.ps1. Both nodes are reachable on TCP port 3261, and the storage path exists and is writable on both nodes:

VSA Storage\mnt\disk1

A simple image creation with New-ImageFile succeeds:

```powershell
New-ImageFile -server $sw1 -path "VSA Storage\mnt\disk1" -fileName "header-test" -size 1024
```

However, CreateHA_2.ps1 fails during the header creation step with the following error:


Request to 10.42.100.4 (10.42.100.4) : 3261
-
control ImageFile -CreateHeader:"Headers\device4\device4.swdsk" -pathDirHeaderBackup:"VSA Storage\mnt\disk1" -file:"VSA Storage\mnt\disk1\device4.img" -Size:"1024" -CacheMode:"none" -CacheSizeMB:"0" -BlockSize:"0" -psectorSize:"4096" -sectorSize:"512" -MaxUnmap:"128"
-
200 Failed: invalid parameter value.


The failure occurs before the HA synchronization or partner configuration begins.

Could this be caused by an incompatibility between the current StarWindX / PowerShell Management Library installed on my Windows workstation and my VHCA/CVM build 15260?

If so, where can I download the matching StarWindX module and CreateHA_2.ps1 sample for StarWind V8 build 15260?

Thank you.

Best regards,

15260 is outdated; consider updating to the latest build.
StarWindX and VSAN need to be on the same version.

Thank you for your answer.

I used the following download link:

This is the link I received by email after requesting the download through the StarWind website.

Ideally, update VSAN.
