Migrating to HA

Hi.
I'm running a trial of StarWind which I'm planning to use in HA mode for hosting ESXi storage.

Is it possible to create a single iSCSI target, and then later convert this to a HA target (ie sync to a partner server)? At the moment if I remove the target and then try to re-add the img file as a HA device, it warns me that the img file is not HA enabled and will have to be wiped to continue.

Many thanks.

Hi mstar,
HA images are not compatible with the regular image files.
In order to migrate to HA you will need to create a separate HA device and replicate all the data from the old image to the new HA device.
