Initially Created a LUN using the CreateImageFile.ps1 sample.
It creates a non-replicated image. You cannot make it HA later without significantly reworking the scripts.
RemoveHAPartner, put the new replacement in place and then run AddHAParnter to connect to replacement and allow to sync.
Does the RAID need rebuilding from scratch? In other words, sit the RAID gone?
When I try to use MaintenanceMode.ps1, but change the operands to (true, true) to try to take it out of maintenance mode, it fails because "connection with partner node is invalid."
#code: params: enable, force -> $false, $true
You need both partners to exit the maintenance mode.
You can edit the headers
1. Stop StarWindService on one node
2. Go to C:\Program Files\StarWind Software\StarWind\headers and copy the corresponding *_HA.swdsk
3. Edit that file.
4. aim for <maintenance_mode/> area and set it to false for both local and partner.
5. Start StarWindService and see if the target is synchronized and available over iSCSI (You might still need to mark it as synchronized).
When I try RemoveHAPartner, it gives "Error: 200 Failed: operation cannot be completed."
It won't work until the device is in maintenance mode.

P.s. StarWind VSAN features Active-active replication. See more on priorities (i.e., what you refer to primary/partner) here https://forums.starwindsoftware.com/vie ... php?t=5731
