Hi Greg,
Thanks for responding, but, I understand I can select which disks to use in my cluster if the OS decares them as sharable. But what i need to know is how does the OS determin if the disk in question IS a sharable disk.
I ask this as I'm having an issue with 2003 enterprise declaring that the iSCSI devices it finds are not on a shared bus and cant be used as a "quorum capable device".
Also during the initial Cluster node installation In 2003 server ,The process will bring the sharable physical disks into the cluster "automatically" using the smallest disk as the quorum.
This is the part im having an Issue with and wonder how the "check" concludes that the device is sharable..
Thanks Again
Bob

during setup you tell it which disks are on the shared bus, but generally
it assumes that you want disks NOT on the same bus as the OS to be shares.
it uses the disk signature to recognize those disks and identify them as
cluster resource.

signature that it looks for? Or does it attempt a reserve / release on the
"disk" ?
