MD3200i clustering inside Windows 2008 R2
Hello,
i am trying to setup clustering with ISCSI on MD3200i but cluster check is failing.
Over windows iscsi initiator i connected to storage and i did not use multipathing, each path on the both VMs is same. Now i have 2 disks from storage , quorum 1gb, and data lun 120gb. This check fails for quorum disk and i have no clue why since it's added the same way like the bigger data disk. Any thoughts?
This is the error:
No Events found!

Hello opti2k4,
Here is a link to our setup guide for installing MD 3200i in a cluster using windows 2008R2. http://www.training4storage.com/dellmd_lsi_cn_docs/document/2010/08/MD32x0i_with_Windiws_Faliover_Clusters_Hardware_Installation_Guide.pdf. I would double check your steps on page 31 to ensure that your setup is correct with what we have for setting up your cluster.
Please let us know if you have any other questions.

I found the problem, why is the crappy access disk of 19MB auto created? It is the reason why my cluster check is failing so i would like to know how can i tell windows iSCSI initiator not to connect it to OS? I deleted removed it from connected disks, but it's still in the disk devices after i rebooted the server.
