Hi all,
may be is a stupid question, i need to know if starwind can be installed in a VMware VM replicated to another VM hosted by an other ESX, and if the volume exported by the StarWind VM can be utilized by all the VMs, of the two ESX hosts. This configuration is supported? Where i can find documents about this?
And the HA configuration of starwind in this kind of environment is supported?

Thanks
Luix

Hello LUIX73,
This will work ok, but the configuration is not supported.
The configuring procedure is just the same as for traditional HA (Use the StarWind HA with VMWare ESX technical paper)
But ensure that your VM's need to have a separate set of PHYSICAL NIC's to run the sync and iSCSI traffic.
