I have worked with a new hyper-v win2k8r2 cluster the last few days, and am about to pull my hair out! I have two 2k8r2 enterprise servers connecting to a starwind san v5.4. I have three targets configured on the san (1 quorum and 2 cluster disks.) I configure each node to connect to the san targets and they show in the cluster storage as online. When I add them to the cluster shared volume, one will always show online (redirected access). I get the 1034 errors that the expected signature is "blah" for the redirected disk. Of course the signature of the cluster disk in question is exactly the signature that it is expecting. I've determined this using diskpart. I was able to get the CSV to show online for both data targets for a few hours, but now one is always back to always showing as redirected. I've removed and added the "favorites" iscsi targets on the 2k8r2 nodes, completely removed all settings in the iscsi applet, readded them, and I keep having the same redirected access issues. i've tried transferring ownership to the other node, but it never helps. as soon as i remove the cluster disk out of the CSV, it goes back online.
The starwind config is simple... i simply have targets specified to local hp raid 6 storage arrays with no starwind HA settings... simple single san only. I am about to throw this whole hyper-v thing in the trash and go buy vmware. I could have set up 15 vmware clusters in the time i've spent on this simple hyper-v mess. anyone have any ideas?
