Absolutely a critical component without doubt.

Initially the requirements for it will stop most shops from even being able to try it. Key to this are the requirement for a dedicated RoCE > > adapter to each partition with 100Gb throughput. Virtual adapters do not qualify.

Am I misreading or misunderstanding ( or both, quite common ) that I need three partitions to set up a cluster?
One system for the quorum disk? Any information about largest distance between the nodes?

Best regards
