Is Hyper V clustering required for configuring HA in F5 VE

Hi,   We have to deploy two F5 BIG IQ, one in each DC on a separate Hyper V host.   Do we need to configure Hyper v clustering for HA to work on F5 BIG IQ?

No, as long as the BIG-IQ virtual machines run ok then the underlying hyper visor setup shouldn’t matter.

 

Quick disclaimer I have never setup BIG-IQ on Hyper-V but have done and standalone VMware hosts without a problem before.
