Fast failover is not supported if the RLINK is in hard synchronous mode

Last published : Oct 01, 2026
In synchronous mode of replication, if fast failover is set, then the RVG cannot be stopped and started when a disk group fails over to another node. If the RLINK is in hard synchronous mode, it may not be connected when the volume arrives, and the I/Os may fail. In such case, the Event Viewer displays NTFS errors and file system reports the volume as RAW. Therefore, fast failover is not supported if the RLINK is in hard synchronous mode. (2711205)
