Insight Dynamics follows the same convention established by Microsoft SCVMM of allowing
only one Hyper-V HA virtual machine per clustered datastore. Therefore, when you create
a highly available Hyper-V virtual machine logical server and you configure storage,
datastores that already have an HA virtual machine enabled are not presented as available
storage selections. Similarly, if you attempt to import an HA virtual machine, and there are
virtual machines on the same datastore, the HA virtual machine will not be imported.
Hyper-V only allows access to only one member of a cluster at a time.

If you do not check Enable High Availability, the available storage on the Create Logical
Server Storage screen contains both local datastores and shared datastores that are not being
used by HA-enabled VM guests.

You can create a Hyper-V virtual machine logical server with an IDE controller but not a
SCSI controller. (You can create an ESX virtual machine logical server with a SCSI controller
but not an IDE controller.)
