HINT1
initMethod can be
NotSynchronize - skips synchronization (works ONLY IF THERE IS NO DATA TO SKIP THE ORIGINAL SYNCHRONIZATION).
Clear - default
SyncFromFirst or SyncFromSecond or SyncFromThird - runs full synchronization from the specific node. Use it for recreating replicas.
HINT2
Size is in MB.
HINT3
Check more on bitmap types here https://knowledgebase.starwindsoftware. ... a-devices/.
If you are not sure which one to choose or if there is no faster storage than the DATA disk connected, leave it as is.
HINT4
/ and \ in imagePath are not the same
HINT5
imageName can be whatever you like and aligns with ASCII. I always use the same name for simplicity.
HINT6
storageName is used only if you plan adding the partner to the existing device. For CreateHA_2.ps1 use, leave it as is.
HINT7
Do not change poolName.
HINT8
Before turning on the cache read these KBs
How cache works https://knowledgebase.starwindsoftware. ... rinciples/
How to remove RAM cache https://knowledgebase.starwindsoftware. ... -l1-cache/ and SSD cache
Full synchronization causes https://knowledgebase.starwindsoftware. ... may-start/
What to do in case of blackout (sync may not start automatically after power failures/restart mishandles when the write-back cache is on) https://knowledgebase.starwindsoftware. ... -blackout/
HINT9
Make sure that at least one StarWind comm goes over a different NIC to avoid split-brain https://www.starwindsoftware.com/blog/w ... -avoid-it/

You are welcome to add multiple $syncInterface= and $hbInterface= IPs (yes, you need to type the IP address of the partner as a value).
