4 Introduction This technical paper covers the Highly Available Shared Storage configuration for multiple roles in Windows Server It describes how to configure AWS cloud instances, networks in AWS, StarWind Virtual SAN, create Cluster Shared Volumes (CSV), and configure the Failover Cluster Roles. StarWind Virtual SAN is a hardware-less storage solution that creates a fault-tolerant and high-performing storage pool built for virtualization workloads by mirroring existing server s storage and RAM between the participating storage cluster nodes. The mirrored storage resource, in this case, is treated like a local storage. StarWind Virtual SAN ensures simple configuration of highly available shared storage for multiple roles and delivers excellent performance and advanced data protection features. This guide is intended for experienced Windows Server users, or system administrators. It provides detailed instructions on how to configure HA Shared Storage for Failover Cluster Roles in Windows Server 2016 with StarWind Virtual SAN as a storage provider. It also contains detailed instructions on how to configure AWS EC2 with peering connections, how to create and configure StarWind EC2 instances. A full set of up-to-date technical documentation can always be found here, or by pressing the Help button in the StarWind Management Console. For any technical inquiries please visit our online community, Frequently Asked Questions page, or use the support form to contact our technical support department. TECHNICAL PAPER 4

5 Architecture overview The proper Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) configuration is a key to successfully realize Microsoft Failover Cluster instances on AWS. There are two possible ways to deploy StarWind instances in AWS: Two StarWind instances within same VPC but in different Availability Zones using routing tables. Two StarWind instances in different VPCs using peering connection to communicate. Principal architecture diagram: Windows Failover Clustering requires Active Directory (AD) as an orchestrator. AD DC (Active Directory Domain Controller) can be either configured as on-premises DC (Domain Controller) with VPN connections to AWS StarWind Instances or/and the virtual instance in AWS EC2 with optional replication to the on-premises domain controller using built-in active directory replication. AWS AD DC best practices can be found following the link. TECHNICAL PAPER 5

6 Configuring AWS EC2 with peering connection between 2 different VPC 1. First, select a region for use in AWS EC2. 2. Open AWS Management Console and navigate to VPC option in Networking & Content Delivery section. TECHNICAL PAPER 6
