Storage Spaces 4 Node cluster interconnecting

[Disease]

I am trying to setup a 4 node cluster for storage spaces direct and hyper-V.

 

Each node has 4 10gb nics and I have each node connected to each other using 3 of the 4 nics with the 4th being the connection to my main network.

 

I am trying to connect each node as a direct connection with no switch, I have given them separate IP addressing to my main network but they show as no connection with each other on those connections, I am missing something here anyone able to point me in the right direction.

 

This is what it shows in FCM:

 

This is how I have connected the cables:

Firstly I assume you realise that’s not a supporter config? Only 2 node switchless is

 

But in terms of actually getting it to work I think you have to use separate subnets on each connection, they shouldn’t clash in terms of routing where currently they are with you using similar ips etc

 

Might be worth a try on one

Thanks, didn't know that only 2 node switchless is supported, was following a guide for 4 node switchless so assumed it was all good.

 

Will give it a go with different subnets.

Each connection is its own network, so has to have its own subnet, same with ceph
