2012 R2 + SMB3?
2012 R2 has support for Hyper-V storage using SMB3, so I'm trying to take advantage of that on a 4220. It keeps failing and my hunch is that it has to do with permissions. Has anyone been able to get ...
I reached out to an engineer at Microsoft who works in the clustering and high-availability department. He sent back this:
"Hyper-V supports SMB3, and that could be serviced by either a Windows Server running the Scale-out File Server role, or with 3rd party NAS. As you’ve found, many vendors now support SMB3 and running Hyper-V… and we embrace that.
Looking at the error you are receiving, it appears you are attempting to do a Shared VHDX on the SMB share. In order to do this, there are some protocol changes. The server must support SMB 3.02 and some additional work to support Shared VHDX on top of that. So my guess is that the ReadyNAS supports SMB3, but not all the latest flavors to light up the newest features.
If you have contact with them, I’m happy to be looped in and I can help educate them on the requirements to support shared VHDX."
Anyone from ReadyNAS here who would want to talk with him about this? He asked I not post his contact info on the forum but I can make an introduction through email.
