Intro
In this article, we will see how to set up Storage Spaces Direct under two VMs.
S2D is the solution hyperconverged of Microcrost arrival with Windows Server 2016.
I also took advantage of this lab to use Admin Center.
Prerequisites
- Have a domain controller
- Two servers (VM) under Windows 2016 Datacenter with 4 disks dedicated to S2D.
Due to the use of a cluster with two nodes, the storage pool will be mirrored.
With two servers, you can only create two-way mirrored volumes (compare with distributed RAID-1).
The 2 nodes of the cluster were installed without GUI.
