Accidentally posted this in the OS forum and it may make better sense here. Haven't been able to get it moved though so sorry for the duplicate post



I have an HA cluster I built.

3 2012R2 servers (physical) each has it's own DC local to hit (so the cluster can stand up)

each physical box has access to the 3 drives on SAN1 (SSD volume, Mechanical volume, and the Quorum).

How do I make it to where my second SAN is connected to the physical boxes and accessible to VMs for HA as well?

The goal is to make it so that if SAN1 fails the Vms will pickup on SAN2....Right now I only have failover capabilities if the physical host themselves fail but not the SANs.

Thanks!
 
How are the hosts connected to the SAN1 and SAN2? What brand are the SAN?
 
It appears the Cybernetics SAN appliances support hardware level HA. I'm not familiar with them personally, but I imagine this is done through their management software. As far as the hosts go, multipath iSCSI links to each storage device after configuring them for HA should solve your dilemma.
