NOTE:
•
A file share resource must reside in the same cluster group as the physical disk resource it will
reside on.
• The physical disk resource specified in this step must reside in the same cluster group as specified
in the beginning of this wizard.
Creating NFS share resources
To create an NFS share resource, see “ MSNFS administration on a server cluster ” on page 102.
Shadow copies in a cluster
It is recommended that the location of the cache file be placed on a separate disk from the original
data. In this case, a physical disk resource for the cache file disk should be created in the same cluster
group as the intended Shadow Copy resource and the volume for which snapshots will be enabled.
The resource should be created prior to the establishment of Shadow Copies. The Shadow Copy
resource should be dependent on both the original physical disk resource and the physical disk
resource that contains the cache file.
For more information, see the following topics in the clustering online help:
• Using Shadow Copies of Shared Folders in a server cluster
• Enable Shadow Copies for shared folders in a cluster
Extend a LUN in a cluster
To extend a LUN on a storage array in a cluster, review the requirements and procedures from the
storage array hardware provider for expanding or extending storage.
For additional information associated with extending a LUN in a cluster, see the following Microsoft
