Yes, Q is the SAN Drive. I have been reading some clusting books and I have
seen alot of picutes of Cluster Administrator with a Local Quorum. I was
worried I set my Quorum wrong. Thanks for the info.

Until the cluster is established, all SAN disks appear as locally attached
storage. If Q: is a SAN-based disk, then you should be OK.

Typically, you don't go with a local quorum, unless you're in a
single-node
cluster. Why aren't you using a shared disk resource?

I'm unfamiliar with:

Generic Service (Navisphere_Agent)

I'm wondering why this is in the cluster group.

I have a 2 node SQL 2005 cluster. I have a few questions about the
Quorum
resources. When I setup the cluster I pointed the vitural server quorum
resource to a local disk. (Q:\MSCS). I feel like I did not set this up
correctly. The 4 Resources types I have in the First Resourece group
is.
(
See Below). Do I need to create a Local Quorum resource in my Cluster
Group
and change my setting on the vitural server Properties (Quorum Tab) to
point
to the Local Quorum resource? Better yet I have found a few guides on
TechNet and other places. Does anyone have a best practice on setting
up
Cluster Administrator. I have also 2 other Groups one for MSDTC and the
Other has SQL server 2005 see below.

Cluster Group
IP Address
Network Name
Physical DIsk
Generic Service (Navisphere_Agent)

MSDTC Group
MSDTC IP Address
MSDTC Network Name
MSDTC Physical Disk
MSDTC Resource (Distributed Transaction Coordinator)

SQL Server 2005 Group
Analysis Services
Disk F: (Physical Disk)
Disk G:
SQL IP Address
SQL Network Name
SQL Server
SQL Server Agent
SQL Server Fulltext
