Create the following shared volumes:
• One volume that is dedicated for use as the cluster quorum resource.
Microsoft requires that you configure the quorum disk with a size of 512 MB.
• One or more volumes for application data (that is, service data).
• Optionally, a VSS control volume if using Auto-Snapshot Manager, or
volumes for disk backup media.
To ensure proper security and data integrity, for each shared volume, create
one or more access control records to allow only the cluster nodes access to
the volume. Also, reserve snapshot space if you want to create volume
snapshots or use Auto-Snapshot Manager.
