"invalid partner info" creating Replica

I'm trying to create replication partner for lsfs image via replication wizard...
Readding servers to management console and reinstalling server agents didn't help

7929 build, Hyper-V under ESXi
Any ideas?
Btw, creating small HA-image (just for test) via "Clusters" works fine

You can try re-installing StarWind. If you already tried that, please provide the following information:
1. Size of lsfs device
2. Amount of caching applied (L1/L2) to it
3. Amount of memory allocated for StarWind VM's
4. Upload StarWind logs to some file sharing service (dropbox) for us to take a look
5. Indicate approximate time when you tried to create replica
Thank you

1. 800GB lsfs virtual disk w/Dedup (works fine!)
2. 1024Mb L1 WB cache + 0 L2
3. 20 (System, NTFS, Hyper-v) + 804 GB (GPT, NTFS) + 4096 RAM
Partial logs from both nodes:

Btw, using option "Select existing Device" (Replication Wizard) says "Specified File alredy exists"

Thank you for the logs. I have forwarded them to R&D. I will let you know if they require more information.
As for "Specified File already exists", please give this header a different name (add 1 to it...)

The issue has been identified and fixed. Is it a production environment? We can send you a test build to check. Please let me know

It's a testing pre-production environment, so I can wait a bit...
Btw, I'm waiting for a new build with a some new feature also (

There is no need to upgrade the service itself, simply install only SW management console from this package on a remote computer and try to add replica from that console.

Thank you. Forwarded these logs to R&D. Did you perform full installation or only that of management console?

I am getting this same error as well. It may be for a different reason, but the error itself it occurring at a similar time as it is replicating the disk with invalid partner info.

baka,
Could we arrange a remote session and look closer at this? It would be really helpful. If it is possible, let me know when you are available tomorrow.
Thank you
