Hi, Manual fail-over appears to work OK - in order, I tested: - Live migration from one node to the other, and back again (worked) - Stopping the cluster service on one of the nodes (i.e. from Failover Cluster Manager) - this showed the VM moving from the node that was stopped, over to the other node (again worked). - Pulling the power on the active node hosting both VM's (i.e. Windows guest, and FreeBSD guest) - this showed the remaining node trying to bring up the VM's (of which Windows came up OK, and FreeBSD got corrupted). I've had to stop now as the guy here looking after the Synology kit on the test network is applying a firmware update (this is apparently for some appletalk issue or something). I'll re-run the test after this has been done - if it still fails, I'll come back with a 'how to reproduce' type report (and I'll obviously let you know if we can't reproduce it again!). At least I know it 'should' work now :) Thanks, -Karl
