Storage Replication + HA

I'm testing the new storage replication framework, specifically trying to make it work with HA.

I've created a 3-node cluster and have a VM on server2. I set up replication. I let the first sync complete, then watch replication continue minute by minute. It's working nicely. I can migrate the VM in just a couple of seconds to server1, and the replication entry automatically reverses (now from 1 to 2). So far so good.

I create an HA entry for the VM and unplug server 1 (on which the VM is currently running). After about 2 minutes, the VM is started on server 2. Quite slow, but ok. However, the replication entry is now gone. I can't migrate (even offline), and I also can't delete the VM because it complains that there's still a replication entry (which is not there under Replication).

Am I doing it wrong, or is it still early days yet for this feature?
 
Hi.

I am testing the same.
HA requires 3 nodes work fine.

The original server must be include on the HA group.

I am on process of update the version, 4 to 5.2, actually using SHARE Storage,
i want test VM on SHARE Storage - replicating to other 2 Server with local Storage.
