Hi All

 

I am facing the same problem, but solved it by below steps.

(version XPEnoboot 5.2-5644)

1: modify the S/N number, make sure both Xpenology NAS are having different SN

2: modify MAC address, make sure it starts with 00:11:29:XXXXX, it is easy to change in Esxi

3: the virtual PC must have serial port ( otherwise you will see the "operation fail, please re-login again" message)

4: HA progress will be very smooth if you didn't create volume at all.

But unfortunately, it introduced a new problem.

5: it shows "operation fail, please make sure the passive server is online" if i want to create volume after HA built.

 

Note:

(4): if you create volume before config the HA cluster, then HA will fail

 

Any ideas ?

How to check the log file of HA ?

Thanks
