Quorum |
|
|
I have a SAN storage with various servers connected to this storage and i
intend to host three 2 node clusters on the storage. Is it possible to have
the quorum of the different clusters on the same shared storage or does doing
that pose a problem. Please i will really like to be enlinghten by a more
knowlegdeable professional. The is redundancy for this shared drive anyway if
that is a concern.
Thank you

Microsoft uses the Shared Nothing Model. With that said, only one server at
a time can control any Resource or Group or Disk. You can share a SAN, if
you carve it up, but the Quorum can not be shared with different Clusters at
the same time. HA costs money, add drives.
Cheers,

Thank you Rodney with that said are you saying i can create different logical
partitions on the SAN storage for each Quorum. I am also happy to have had
you response on this because looking at the forum your responses are always
very helpful. I also have the question about FTP i have the base windows 2003
clustering part done but can you help me with any information on how to
deploy FTP services as a two node cluster on this setup.
Thank you
