Need advice on a cluster of 2 servers 2012 r2

Question

Active Directory

Hello!
There are two physical servers, there are 2 srv2012 R2 Std OLP licenses.
There are no more servers and never will be. There is no hardware SAN either.
The task is to create a failover cluster and run 2 Hyper-V virtual machines in it.
What I tried to do:
1. Put the OS on physical servers. Added roles Hyper-V, DNS.
2. Made the 1st PDC server, and the other - add. controller.
3. As a SAN, I used StarWind software (installed on both servers, set up a "cluster" or as it is correctly called from two SANs, i.e. "HA" on two nodes).
4. Gave the role of failover clusters nat. servers. Began testing before deployment of a cluster - a problem with AD. Looked through the Internet. I saw that in the srv2012 environment (unlike the same 2008), you cannot combine the roles of a domain controller and a cluster member on the same server (in the same OS). By the way, as I understand it, you created the planned configuration (the question is on what version of the OS?), a quote from itband.ru: "In my projects, if I have a small branch office, where there are only two physical nodes that I want to make members of the cluster Hyper-V, I make them physical controllers - and cluster members at the
same time. This is a supported configuration, although it has some difficulties. "
What to do?
I see this option: outside the cluster in the Hyper-v environment, create VMs on each of the physical. servers. On the 1st VM, deploy the PDC, and on the 2nd - add. controller. Thus I do not know - to enter physical. servers (hosts) to the domain or not (I read that a domain is not required for a cluster on srv2012).
In this case, only 1 srv2012 VM will work in the cluster (because the server 2012 standart license - 2 VMs in total).
What is your opinion, how would it be more competent to solve the task on the existing equipment?
Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

In general, you should not do this, because all deviations from best practice go sideways.
... but if you really want to:
1. take another computer, create 2 virtual machines on them, raise the main and backup AD controller.
2. Set up 2 HV servers, enter into a domain
3. Create a cluster (where will you store the quorum?)
4. Drag and drop controllers to HV servers
5. Set up asymmetric priority of AD controllers on HV servers

Answer 2

About the same problems. Two servers, how can you make fault-tolerant storage for virtual machines (something like vSAN and Virtual Storage Appliance from VMware)? win2012r2
