You can just fail the resources over to node 2. As long as nodes 3 4 can
communicate with node 2, then node 2 remains the owner.
The problem you have is if comms is cut between Site1 and Site2. Then you have
two nodes at each end - which side should pick a node to seize control of the

The larger the number of spindles in your RAID5 array, the less space you lose.

Running NLB Manager on a system with all networks bound to NLB might not work
as expected. If all interfaces are set to run NLB in unicast mode, NLB will
fail to connect to hosts.
Actually, I checked and both NICs are plugged into the same VLAN. I thought
they were on a crossover cable, but I was thinking about a cluster I'm also

Any ways, the issue is the same. The NLB NIC still says Unidentified network

I've honestly never seen any in-depth comparisons on the performance
differences between RAID 0+1 and RAID 10. This article provides a clear
explanation on the fault tolerant differences between the two (RAID 10
allowing for a greater combination of drive failures).
Good send.

It also depends on what you use it for. For reading the performance
difference is not as dramatic as for writing, especially as you add more
disks. For writing the difference will improve with more disks, but will
still be less than half of raid1.
