    Hi Amir,

    Zerto does not support VMs with shared disks / multiwriter. This can be done in some cases when you have an Active/Passive node configuration, as long as there is never more than one VM writing to the disk at any given time, but in all other cases Zerto does not support protecting VMs with shared disks.
    If you are intending on protecting an MSCS Server with shared disks in an Active/Passive configuration, you can refer to the following documentation to ensure we can support it:
    For more information, please refer to the following KB: http://s3.amazonaws.com/zertodownload_docs/Latest/Zerto%20Virtual%20Replication%20and%20Microsoft%20SQL%20Best%20Practices.pdf
    Best Regards
