HyperV 2012 JBOD architecture design and workloads
But you cannot have both Hyper-V and SoFS on the same hosts.
Please clarify the above statement from the Post
HyperV 2012 JBOD architecture design and workloads
My reason for asking. Been studying Hyper-V Windows 2012 for a year. Proposed Cluster;
1. Hardware 3 identical servers. OS's are 2 drives mirrored. 4 JBOD pass through 1 tb drives per server using 1 onboard SAS controller per box. (Intel S2600GZ MB)
All 3 in a Cluster with Host Storage Spaces, SMB. SOFS for Virtual VHD Disks and VHD Files. Classic File Services for Metadata access.
2 Virtual Machines per host. These virtual machines are 2 AD DC'S, 1 Exchange Server, 1 Remote Desktop Services Applications Server, 1 SQL Server (Contact Business Manager and Access Dbases) and 1 PSQL Server (Enterpise Product Management.) The workload
traffic is small - 50 users. Staff also uses Office Suite.
It is my thought to combine the Cluster HA and the SOFS/CFS Roles. This post mentioned is the first I have come across stating the Hyper-V and SOFS must be on different hosts. Please explain the rationale and data to support this statement, as I may need to go back to the drawing board.
