Re: Just want to share a Disk to 6 computers (no failover)

So are you trying to share a LUN between two Windows 2008 servers so they
access the same LUN simultaneously without clustering involved? If so, this
is not going to be possible. The NTFS filesystem does not have any built-in
filesystem locking mechanisms, so it cannot handle simultaneous physical
access to the filesystem. Doing so will result in filesystem corruption.

Hi,
I'm running a intel modular server (6 CPU Modules and a shared LUN /
Disk).
I just want to format this shared Data-Disk (not the system Disks) with
NTFS
and share it over all computers. Physicaly it's working -- but Windows
2008
don't like it (chckdsk when starting at all computers for the shared drive
/
recycler is always mentioned as corrupted).
Failover is not my intention. MultiPathIO and the Failover-Feature is
installed.
The Failover-Networking is not in place (no IP assigned).
What software components do I need to run the scenario?
It's just want a share SAN-Drive !
Thank you very much ...
.
