Is it 100% necessary for servers used for HA to be fully identical? Can I use an AMD server and an Intel server from different generations for HA? One server is a dual quad AMD form 3 years ago while the other is a dual quad Intel from last year. Both will run Windows 2012.

Thanks

Thank you. I will download it and install.

In the meantime can you tell me what you saw that was wrong with my setup. Another system built a day before or a day after this system is working fine with the same specs and same setup.

Can I break the mirror, resize the image and then re-create the mirror without losing the data in the image? Can I update the version I have with...

My OS is Server 2008 SP1.

Ok, I started this topic and upgrading to the latest version has solved the issue of losing datastores. However this has introduced a new and critical issue. Around every week and a half to two weeks both of my previously solidly stable SAN boxes crash. One of them gives a BSOD and the other reboots...

I have seen mention of this referring to ESX 3.5 however I am running ESX 4 and all referrences are to snapshots - these are not snapshots but actual volumes. A major reason why my environment cannot go into production is that on reboot of any of my hosts I totally lose connection to the datastores ...

Now every 5 minutes the Starwind Service on the passive box shuts down. A simple click on Start Service brings the service bac...
