Hi guys;

I'm just evaluating Starwind VSAN and I'm right now working on different scenarios.

After a sucessfull two node HA build on VMWare EXSi, I set both nodes to maintance mode and shutdown both machines.

Then I started only the primary node (I want to simulate a total blackout of the secondary node). The primary node started in Maintenance mode.
I didn't found a way to enable only the first node. Anytime I tried to run the maintenance mode script I got an error like "connection with partner node is
invalid".

What's the correct procedure for this kind of scenario?

Thanks in advance!

Welcome to StarWind Forum. You can't exit the maitnenance mode while its replication partners are down.
