unfortunately it is a little more difficult. I spent 3 hours with a colleague to set up his Storage Spaces Cluster. learned a lot about enabling and disabling cluster resources to get them to be formatted correctly.
I hit the point where I was confident in the direction and performance of Linux in Hyper-V. The other major factor is that I wanted to free up the two Proxmox nodes to convert to Hyper-V. Right now it is a bit painful with only two nodes on the new architecture. This should give me enough physical nodes to swap out to the new architecture. A bit scary running at the moment but it should be fine.
Hi Patrick,
Little late chipping in here.
We have been running a Hyper-V 2012 cluster in production for about a 9 months now on the C6100s and it has been solid. I have not played with Hyper-V R2 yet but its on my to-do list. We are mostly a windows shop with a few Linux boxes so that made it easier. We are using Open-E DSS7 as the storage over Infiniband with an LSI card and CacheCade. Overall I would say the Cluster setup is faster than our Win28k Hyper-V( non cluster ) servers and even non virtualized Servers.
Over all I have been very pleased.
Great question. The site is now running fully on Hyper-V. The final two remainting proxmox nodes have not been converted yet but they are powered down just in case something goes awry.So does this mean you are fully on Hyper-V now?
