Re: MSCS with NAS



MNS needs 3 servers in order to survive a single node failure. You could
build a 2-node MNS cluster, but the cluster cannot survive a single node
failure so it seems pretty pointless to setup a cluster this way.

If you use a standard quorum, you only need to have 2 nodes.

John

Can I use iSCSI for quorum? Or, only MNS?
Thanks!

You can use either for quorum.
