How to build Hyper-V Cluster?

Hi all,

anybody here who can explain how to setup SAN block storage with InfoScale (VEA) to build a Microsoft Hyper-V Cluster based on Windows Server 2016?

Setup:

Getting SAN storage from two EMC Unity connect to my servers via FC. Windows MPIO is installed and configured.

Windows Server 2016 failoverclustering feature is installed on two servers.

I can see the SAN Disks in VEA on both servers.

Questions:

How to configure the SAN disks according diskgroups and volumes in VEA to work properly in MS failoverclustering?

Do I have to create one volume in VEA for each Hyper-V VM? Or how does it work if I want to move single VMs to other cluster nodes?

How to assign the diskgroups/volumes in my MS cluster?

I read the "Storage Foundation 7.3.1 Administrator's Guide -Windows " but it doesn't answer my questions. :-/

Maybe there is a whitepaper that may help?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

Andi
