Hello,

I am trying to create a new failover cluster on Windows Server 2022 OS.

I have 2 nodes added to the domain.

I am validating and I have some issue with network adapters. Have someone error like me on screen?

Unable to locate adapter identified by GUID 'Microsoft:{12ED0B40-CB47-48E3-872B-65C4CE8AB851}' associated with SET Switch 'MGMTSwitch' on node 'HV01.contoso.local'

Unable to locate adapter identified by GUID 'Microsoft:{FD85BDBC-0778-4AB9-A70B-D38ADFDF18CB}' associated with SET Switch 'MGMTSwitch' on node 'HV02.contoso.local'

Monosnap HV01 - 192.168.200.101 2024-10-07 12-21-12

Any idea what is wrong with this configuration?

    Hey,

    You should check if RDMA is enabled on your adapters. It might be related to the issue. Try disabling it: Disable-NetAdapterRdma -Name "MyAdapter"

    In addition, if you need shared storage for Failover Cluster, you can use StarWind VSAN to create replicated shared storage for VMs. https://www.starwindsoftware.com/resource-library/starwind-virtual-san-for-hyper-v-2-node-hyperconverged-scenario-with-windows-server-2016/
