I have a cluster and enabled vSphere HA.
After enabled vSphere HA, have a warning:
The number of vSphere HA heartbeat datastores for this host is 0, which is less then required:2
I have a iSCSI Storage(Windows Server 2012)
And add storage to ESXi hosts
What should I do?
You need to add a second datastore.
Then right click each of the ‘hosts’ and select ‘Reconfigure for HA’.
Check it link:
vSphere - 'The Number of HA Heartbeat Datastores for this host is 0' | PeteNetLive
Please consider marking this answer "correct" or "helpful" if you think your question have been answered correctly.
HA datastore heartbeating comes into play if a HA cannot reach other hosts on the network. The secondary datastore provides additional resilience, and if you don't want to create a second datatsore, you may consider to disable the warning (see HA error: "The number of heartbeat datastores for host is 1, which is less than required: 2" (200473... )
I have seen this KB.
I want to solve the warning instead of ignoring it.
