After an upgrade to 5.3, my Hyper-V cluster is having problems moving cluster shared volumes between nodes.
The Starwind log has entries like:
160 PR: * PR-RESERVE Conflict. Reservation key xxxxx. Failed key xxxxx from iqn...
Help?

When will a public release containing this fix be available? Would this wait until 5.5? I'm a bit reluctant to install a beta on my production SAN supporting 40 virtual servers and 1500 users.

We'll move this fix from development to stable branch and publish it as part of 5.3.x upgrade package.

When will this upgrade be available? This problem with persistent reservations seems to dramatically impact StarWind's usefulness in a Microsoft 2008 Cluster.
Thanks...

Any new ETA on a public release that includes a fix for this? We experienced a 2 hour interruption in service today when a single cluster node failure caused an unsuccessful failover of a cluster shared volume. Is support for cluster shared volumes in a Microsoft WIndows 2008 R2 cluster a supported configuration?

Same problem - same solution. You can either wait for release or if you can/want afford downtime (non-production environment I guess...) you can apply for your beta and/or RC build here:
