Hello,
Is it possible to create redundant storage using two Windows 2012 r2 servers? I've been looking all over and any HA options always reference having external shared storage presented to the cluster (I assume NAS/SAN). I am also assuming that said posts expect that whatever tech is being used for shared storage deals with keeping that data fault tolerant (e.g., mirrored SAN) and the Windows cluster need not be aware of that happening in the background.
Due to lack of any storage hardware in my environment I was hoping there was a way to create a redundant file share/system between two Windows 2012 r2 servers at which point I could then create an iSCSI target to present a virtual drive to an application server cluster. That way if one of the "storage servers" fails it won't take down the application running on the app server. I looked into DFS however since the app locks its files those won't replicate across.
I hope my question wasn't too convoluted.
Thanks for any guidance!
