Thanks for sharing. I have a question, do you need Server Datacenter edition and Storage Space Direct to do this or the iScsi configuration that enables automatic failover can be used on Standard Edition?
Why are you using MBR disks? They don't have to be bootable, plus you need to make more partitions with a huge amount of volumes, so, GPT disks are more appropriate.
Thank U Great Demo and easy to follow..Just kind note i would recommend in your future Videos opt out the music as you voice is great clear and even better than Michael Jackson..Keep up the good work
It is an automatic fail-over configuration. If the current node is down, the secondary node will take over the ownership and work as primary. And both node's virtual machines ware live replicated, there will be not any data loss.
nice tutorial, DO you know how to create a cluster tun vmware in two servers? ( i am not it expert) i want that both servers run the same VM, and if one server fail the other can still run the VM. ALso, the VM has to be accesible from another computer in the same network
Nice was wondering how this exactly works awesome! Keep up the good videos good steps and explanations!
Thankyou.
With Failover Clustering, your disks needs to be initialized, NOT online. The Failover Cluster manager makes them online.
Yes, True.

Yes you do

Yes, these disks are don't have to be bootable, you can choose your disk type according to your requirement.
How many VMs, were involved? Node1, Node2, (Failover Manager/iSCSI drives/HyperV Manager) - 3?
Correct. In this demo, there are three systems. Thank you.

Ok, thanks
What happens if in case the VM is live and the current node owner goes down? Will it restart? or shutdown?
It is an automatic fail-over configuration. If the current node is down, the secondary node will take over the ownership and work as primary. And both node's virtual machines ware live replicated, there will be not any data loss.
If I use SAS box how I can connect??
So we need 3 physical servers.right??
@8:48 - why connect to each node, shouldn't you connect to the cluster?
this demo is failover for virtual machines and this video can be your reference only.
And you can not connect to the cluster node as Hyper-V system. Use failover cluster manager to access both nodes at same time .
Is Hyper-v Manager and CLuster manager running on same server?
Yes. if you want to create a virtual machine using the cluster manager you need to install or enable hyper-v manager in the same system.

Yes. Please configure replica broker replication.
