Thats why we've chosen our Windows DC servers. And we have two, and as I read both ping nodes must fail to perform a failover?
I was against switches as I wanted to put the ping node into the iSCSI VLAN and the switche would have to have an IP in that network then...
Or maybe it was wrong and I should take ping nodes in the regular LAN? Then I could take switches, too.
