In reply to Mahade Hassan. Hello Mahade, that is very strange. Have you opened a community thread on the Dell Forums mate? Let me know

In ova_step1 stuck on set the clock process. If i terminate the process by Ctrl+C
then ova_step1 is successful but ova_step2 fails. I already wait for 4h but still stuck on set the clock process

Thanks for your quick reply,

I found that we can not add more nodes to an ECS-CE regarding lack of Fabric layer.

In reply to Mo. Hello Mo, My understanding is that yes, you can add more and extend it, but will need to take a look.

Hello Jorgeuk,

Thanks for this awesome post. I have a single node OVA installation of ECS-CE, can I add another data node to it to expand storage.

Hello,
Veeam can for sure, so instead of tier to this on-prem Dell EMC ECS, you can tier directly to AWS S3, or AWS SE-IA, not Glacier for now, no.

Cheers
