In theory I’d like to write like this too – taking time and actual effort to make a good post… but what can I say… I procrastinate alot and never appear to get something done.

This will provide the best redundancy and highest availability. For Server 2008 R2, your multipath solution must be based on Microsoft MPIO. Hardware vendors usually supply an MPIO device-specific module (DSM) for your hardware, win server 2008 R2 includes some DSMs by default in the OS. Important Host bus adapters and MPIO software is usally very version sensitive. If you are to implement a MPIO solution for your cluster/hyper-v, you should work close with the hardware vendor to choose the correct adapters, firmware, and software for the OS. Much like adaptec raid adapters in ESX server scenarios... Multipath I/O :)

I never figured out how that stuff works =) \\Calle HI, how do i configure MPIO? I never figured out how that stuff works =)
