Which columns shows Disk IO (HyperV_Mon)? Because I can see only 25KB/s disk usage and this doesn't sound right to me .

Thank you !

Hi,

that is what I'm asking for. Our farm is not as fast as it should be with one node down, so another backup or MPIO node will be very needed. Do you have ETA? How it will work?

Thank you

We have for about 6-7 single Hyper-V VPS servers (node0-node6) each with 24-32 GB RAM. Every server has RAID 10 with 4x500 GB HDD. On each server is about 10-20 VMs. How can i get info how much is every node currently using IOPS and MB/s? Will be two HA iSCSI starwind nodes each with 16x 1TB HDD RAI...

Do you plan (and when) to offer more than to 2 node HA? For example 4-5 nodes which will offer more speed and availability?

Set Everyone permissions to FULL on vhd file or vhd folder.

We have Adaptec's 6805 and 16 WD4 1TB disk in RAID 10, which stripe size on adaptec shoud I choose?

Thanks for help!

Hi, as I wrote we are planning HA cluster running on Hyper-V. Currently we have (or we are buying): (per storage node) + 16x 1 TB WD RE + Adaptec 6805 + 32 GB RAM ECC DDR3 per + Intel X3440 (8 CPU 2x4HT) Now we have 6 32 GB RAM Hyper-V nodes with no HA. I want to move them into HA and there are my q...

While Adaptec cards works fine, I would lean towards an LSI card since the backplane uses an LSI expander chip. I've had situations where my Adaptec card would not recognize any drives at all on the backplane...I would say out of 10 reboots it happened once, but that falls into unacceptable to me. ...

Thanks for reply. Will be adding third node available online or just destroy HA and create tripple HA?

Hi all, we are planing to use starwind for our Hyper-V cluster. Now we have about 6 - 10 VPS servers each with (16 - 32 GB RAM) and we are running Hyper-V virtual servers on them. I would like to move to iSCSI solution. Could you help me with configuration (choose right parts)? My first idea - each ...

Hi all,

currently I found that only two HA nodes can be deployed (Master & Slave). Can I add in future another (third) node to became secondary Slave?
I would like to have 5 - 10 1U Cluster W2008R2 machines and 3 storages with MPIO to have better redundancy and performance.

Next question in my head

Should I create one big RAID 10 volume or few RAID 1 volumes?

Hi all, we are about moving to iSCSI solution (one supermicro with StarWind). We have 5 web servers, 2 SQL servers and few mail servers. I'm thinking about moving these dedicated servers to cluster (each cluster server 32 GB RAM ECC). But I don't have absolutely no clue how much and what harddrive I...
