Great vid. Thanks heaps!

Great video. Would be good to see SAS, I assume it's slightly different except I cannot get the drives online on both hosts. Only one at a time.

For SAS, cabling would look like page 35 of dl.dell.com/content/manual51896558-dell-powervault-me5-series-storage-system-deployment-guide.pdf

The cabling looked like pg 31 of Dell PowerVault ME5 Series Storage System Deployment Guide (dl.dell.com/content/manual51896558-dell-powervault-me5-series-storage-system-deployment-guide.pdf) but I only had controller A connected to each Cluster Node 🙂

Hello,
I salute you from France
How is your Dell PowerVault ME5 connected to your servers: by SAS cables or by the Ethernet network ?
Soon I will have to install the same thing but in SAS configuration with DELL HBeA355 cards (Direct attachment 12 Go).
Thank you for your feedback.

Awesome to hear you're seeing this from all the way across the Atlantic. I was using iSCSI on Ethernet during my configuration. For SAS, you'll still want to use MPIO and Cluster services within Windows Server but cabling will look like page 35 of dl.dell.com/content/manual51896558-dell-powervault-me5-series-storage-system-deployment-guide.pdf
