How to rebuild 2nd node

Running V8, lost the array that holds the HA images.

What's the best way to get it back up? I have the starwind config file for the server.

Thanks.

Trust me, the best way to get everything done properly is recreating the replicas from the first node from scratch.

Thanks, that is the ticket. While I've been in the replication manager before I didn't recall an option to recreate the device on the secondary.

Fairly slick actually.

DarkLight, thanks mate!

kmax, anything else I can help you with?

Sure, and anyone else...

Added replicas and synced. Reconnected partner targets from hyper-v hosts. Basically showing duplicates in disk management.

So I'll have a 600GB CSV volume with label HA1 and another 600 GB volume that is basically sitting there unlabeled when I connect via SCSI to the partner.

I'm sure I'm missing something simple.

MPIO (Multipath I/O) feature should be installed and enabled for iSCSI devices.
