I have two machines setup with Teamed 1GB Nic's for user and Hyper-V use I also have Dual port 10GB Mellanox cards directly connect to each port. Windows shows all connections good, and I can ping each interface.
Host01 Host02
vEthernet(Virtual Switch) - 10.0.10.71 10.0.10.72
Mellanox 11 - 10.0.11.71 10.0.11.72
Mellanox 12 - 10.0.12.71 10.0.12.72

I have run through the setup HA a few times but never hit finish while adding and removing NIC cards. Now, when I try to create HA, Starwind says no networks available. Does it store somewhere that a NIC was selected and is no longer available for use? why does it think no NICs are available for HA?

Ok, I see in the partner device setup wizard if I say select existing device, it shows me five HAImage1-xxxxxxxxxxxxx.swdsk . How do I clear those?

Start with un-teaming your NICs. It's not a supported setup (we'll have a good white paper on that soon).
