    Did you guys fix it to where on a Hyper-v failover box if you fail over to the other node you don't lose connectivity?

    I'm anxious to get moving on a Hyper-V failover setup.

    I think you will also find that Windows Server 2012 has had improvements in failover tolerance.

    Indeed. From what I can tell the problem is around the persistent connections, with some of the connection information stored in RAM.
    We will have this worked out in next major release of DSS V7. Expect around second half of August.
