StoreVirtual VSA Overprovisoned?

Hi All,

 

We have a Cluster across 2 nodes, Network RAID10 (2-Way Mirror), thin provisioned. When I look at the Cluster, see attached picture, it tells me that it is overprovisioned.

 

I need to shutdown a node to add some new RAM and a second CPU, I have moved VMs to the second host, but what I need to know is, if I shutdown the first node, will I lose VMs? Or does the Cluster Total space need to be 100% or more for that to happen?

 

Any help would be appreciated and if you need more info, please let me know.

Re: StoreVirtual VSA Overprovisoned?

as long as you are not removing the node from the cluster you should have no problem.  While the node is offline, you will get warnings that your data protection is degraded and then when you turn the node back on it will resync and everything will be back to normal.

Thanks for that. I ended up powering down the node anyway and everything stayed up on the cluster. But since you were the only one who answered, I'll acccept yours as the solution. :)
