4 Introduction StarWind Virtual SAN supports both, hyper-converged and compute- and storageseparated architectures. Running compute and storage layers separately makes it possible to scale compute and storage resources independently. This technical paper provides a detailed step-by-step guidance on configuring a 2- node Hyper-V Failover Cluster using StarWind Virtual SAN to turn storage resources of the separated servers into a fault-tolerant and fully redundant shared storage for Hyper-V environments. The Failover Cluster configuration assumes that if one of the cluster nodes fails, the other nodes automatically take over resources, thus continuing serving the applications. Regarding this feature, the workflow remains uninterrupted and secured. Adding StarWind disks to CSVs provides efficient use of storage and simplifies its management, as well as enhances availability and increases resilience. Once it is done, you can start creating highly available virtual machines on them. This guide is intended for experienced Windows system administrators and IT professionals who would like to configure a Hyper-V cluster using StarWind Virtual SAN to convert the clustered storage space into a fault-tolerant shared storage resource. It also highlights how to connect the StarWind HA devices to the Microsoft iscsi initiator and configure the StarWind shared storage as the Cluster Shared Volumes. 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 Pre-Configuring the Servers The image below depicts a network architecture of the configuration described in this guide: NOTE: Additional network connections may be required depending on the cluster setup and applications it`s running. TECHNICAL PAPER 5

6 1. Make sure that cluster nodes are added to the domain. 2. Install Failover Clustering and Multipath I/O features, as well as the Hyper-V role on cluster nodes. This can be done through Server Manager (Add Roles and Features menu item). 3. Configure network interfaces on each node to make sure that Synchronization and iscsi/starwind heartbeat interfaces are in different subnets and connected as it is shown in the network diagram above. In this document, x and x subnets are used for iscsi/starwind heartbeat traffic while x and x subnets are used for the Synchronization traffic. 4. In order to allow iscsi Initiators to discover all StarWind Virtual SAN interfaces, StarWind configuration file (StarWind.cfg) should be changed after stopping StarWind Service on the node where it is edited. Locate the StarWind Virtual SAN configuration file (the default path is: C:\Program Files\StarWind Software\StarWind\StarWind.cfg) and open it with Wordpad as Administrator. Find the string <iscsidiscoverylistinterfaces value= 0 /> and change the value from 0 to 1 (should look as follows: <iscsidiscoverylistinterfaces value= 1 />). Save the changes and exit Wordpad. Once StarWind.cfg has been changed and saved, StarWind service can be started. TECHNICAL PAPER 6

To configure a Witness drive, right-click the Cluster->More Actions->Configure Cluster Quorum Settings, follow the wizard, and use a default quorum configuration. 88. Right-click the required disk and select Add to Cluster Shared Volumes. Once the disks are added to the Cluster Shared Volumes list, you can start creating highly available virtual machines on them. NOTE: to avoid unnecessary CSV overhead, configure each CSV to be owned by one Cluster node. This node should also be the preferred owner of the VMs it runs. TECHNICAL PAPER 43

44 Conclusion The cluster increases availability of the services or applications on it. CSV feature simplifies the storage management by allowing multiple VMs to be accessed from a common shared disk. Resilience is provided by creating multiple connections between StarWind nodes and the shared disk. Thus, if one of the nodes goes down, another one will take over the production operations.
