This might look like a VM deployment on a #HyperV Cluster, but what you can't tell immediately is this cluster and it's hosts are NOT domain joined 😮 That's right, this is an #S2D Cluster on the #WS2025 Preview running in a workgroup!

Seems I missed this change in June, but if you're using a single flash tier in #AzureStackHCI, you now only need 2 capacity drives at minimum!

Looking for what's new at #MSIgnite for #AzureStackHCI? Well here it is!

Woah what's this? A new #AzureStackHCI build has just dropped!!
#MVPBuzz #HCI #AzSHCI #StorageSpacesDirect #S2D #23H2
Have you found that 2-nodes of #AzureStackHCI are too much for your small branch or Business? Well now you can start with only a single node! Announced at #MSBuild are Single Node Clusters

Starting to compile a reference doc for calculating pool usage of difference volume types in #S2D, here's a sample, what do you all think?

Time to upgrade my #Homelab to Windows Server 2022 Preview, in-place upgrade from #WS2019, without any outages ("hopefully"😂) thanks to #S2D
#WS2022 #WindowsServer #StorageSpacesDirect #MVPBuzz
Woohoo #WS2022 puts a hosts storage into maintenance mode when it's paused in a #StorageSpacesDirect cluster! 🙌🙌
#S2D #WindowsInsiders #WindowsServer #MVPBuzz
Been playing around with a small #PowerShell script this afternoon to check everything is healthy in an #S2D Cluster before maintenance, let me know if you're interested in testing it out.
It's compatible with #WS2019 for now
#StorageSpacesDirect #AzureStackHCI #AzSHCI #MVPBuzz
Woohoo! #SCVMM 2019 Update Rollup 2 is here! Brings support for #WS2012R2 hosts and a number of other great fixes and features!

It's always nice when I hear someone was helped by what's happening in the #AzureStackHCI slack community. Come join the fun, learn from others and give back when you can.

If you're running #S2D or #VSAN on Dell HBA330 cards, this firmware update is highly recommended!
Thanks for the notification @DarrylvdPeijl
#StorageSpacesDirect #AzureStackHCI #HCI #VXRail
If you're performing maintenance on #S2D clusters, please use storage maintenance mode. I can promise you the best possible experience if you do. I've got some commands to try make it simpler for people
#StorageSpacesDirect #AzureStackHCI #bestpractices
For clarity, #AzureStackHCI does not replace or rebrand #StorageSpacesDirect, it is the solution validated with hardware vendors using #WS2019 technologies including #S2D, #HyperV and #SDN. (It replaces the #WS2016 WSSD program)
That is all.
It's so great to see the #StorageSpacesDirect Slack community growing!
Come join us whether you're running or learning about #S2D, everyone is welcome!
If you're running #StorageSpacesDirect on #WS2019, I recommend you apply the latest patch #KB4505658. It resolves an issue where 2-node #S2D Clusters can lose pool quorum when 1 node is offline.
Regular updates and help on
