Re: Not able to add hard drive to cluster



That's were I'm getting stuck. When I attempt to add the new hard drive via
the cluster administration there is no hard drive present for me to choose.
I've assigned the LUN to only that server.

Not sure why this is happening.

You first need to create a clustered disk resource that maps to the physical

Hello,

We currently have an Active/Active SQL 2000 setup. I'm in the process of
adding 3 more nodes to the cluster. The problem I'm having is when I go
to
add a physical disk to the new resource group I am not able to see the
disk
in the pull down menu therefore I cannot install the new SQL instance on
node
3.

There are no errors in the event viewer. Did i miss a step??

thx.
