I am trying to install Starwind on a cluster of servers (that have no link to the internet). I am getting an error that says

"Setup failed to install Microsoft .NET Core. Error 12007"

I have already ran a seperate installer for .NET, so I don't see why the installer is hanging up there. Any help on what to try next would be appreciated.

Thanks!

If you don't need the "VTL and Cloud Replication" feature, uncheck it on the install. It is what is requiring that .NET install. I doubt you need it since your cluster is isolated.

hanle1gs is right, you need to uncheck that component and no .NET Core installation will be required.

Also, if you are installing on a server without a GUI (i.e., Server Core) you can install from command line with something like...

starwind-v8_build_11456.exe /SILENT /COMPONENTS="service,service\starflb,service\starportdriver,StarWindxDll,StarWindXDll\powerShellEx" /LICENSEKEY="StarWind_Virtual_SAN_Free_License_Key.swk"

This works on 2012 core, 2012 R2 core and 2016 core.
Hope this helps.

tig_jeff,

Correct. Those options work just fine.
