Hyper-V VHDX share

Hi there,

We have a 2 node Failover Hyper-V Cluster 2012R2. Everything works as you would expect. On each Node (Host 1 and Host 2), we have a VM (VM1 and VM2). And in Hyper-V i created a VHDX on the Cluster Shared Volume and activated "Enable virtual hard disk sharing" and i allocated it to both VM1 and VM2 as SCSI Controller Virtual Hard Disks. So basically both VM's can see and write on the shared VHDX. 

The problem is that even though both VM's can see and write on the disk, they do not cross see and write. So if i write on the shared VHDX from VM1, it writes, it stores, but VM2 can not see what was written. And it goes both ways, if i write on the shared VHDX from VM2, i can see it, write it, etc. but i cannot see what was written from VM2 on VM1. Does it make sense?

Any ideea how to make it work? Basically i need 2 VM's with the same shared VHDX to be able to read, write and see whatever is written on that shared VHDX regardless of where it was written from.
