HA for replicated VM

[polopolo92]

Hello
I have read documentation and topics on forum about this subject but cannot find a clear answer (and the thread How does Replication work in a HA environment? is quite old , 2017)

If I have a replicated VM betwen the 2 nodes I'll put this VM in HA configuration, Will HA process use the replicated data when movin from lost node to new active one for this VM ?
I mean , do I need a shared storage in this case (nfs or other) ?

Thanks for clarifications
Regards

Hi,
the recent 6.2 release does add support for migration with replicated disks. The replicated data will be used for both offline and online migration. Sadly, it's not yet usable with HA, see this feature request. If you have shared storage, you don't need replication, as the storage is accessible from all nodes.

Thanks

sounds very good, I 'm now in 6.2 (I tested in 6.1 and it was not working)
and when it will be integrated with HA it will be perfect for me !


I prefer replicated rather than NFS as NFS storage becomes a sigle point of failure (and it is faster in my achitecture)
