Slow failover (virtual ip takes long to recover)

[Robotbeat]

What are your advanced settings for autofailover?

BTW, 1 minute isn't really that long for remote storage. You should allow up to at least 180 seconds, usually (can be set in Windows registry).

Do you know more about this in Windows (Server 2008/Hyper-V)? Where can I find the registry key to extend the waiting/recovery time for iSCSI connection?

I think there are more MS users here, which will run into troubles with this vIP timeout ..

Thanks!

The iSCSI connection seems to be a local disk for the os.
I think the registry key is

HKEY_LOCAL_MCHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\service s\Disk
-> TimeOutValue

not sure if this value helps in the guest OS or in host OS.
