Two Node HPE StoreVirtual 3200 questions

[pritesh2]

Hi,

Is it possible to have a two node HPE StoreVirtual 3200 configured in a cluster? Or is it that, each node is supposed to be configured seperately with upto 3 enclosures and I cannot have two nodes in 1 cluster?

The documentation does not state how to create a cluster for the 3200. Hence the question.

Obviously with OS13.5 you can do this.

Still looking for the manuals ...

Hi,

You need indeed version 13.5 for that.

On my blog I have an article that describes the process:

http://www.bitcon.be/hpe-storevirtual-3200-becomes-mature-with-new-software-update-13-5/

Of course always follow the latest documentation...

could you please point us to the docs? can't find them ...

Hi,

does the "Scale Up" procedure provide redudancy of volumes when one of the two nodes is lost?

When I go to Storage Systems->Availability it says that the existing volumes will become unavailable if e.g. the first node goes down.

Do I need the multi site approach to have this kind of availability?

Thanks
