Hi,

I have a 2 node Windows 2008 R2 failover cluster configured and working with an MSDTC appplication that can move between the nodes.

The cluster verification works ok but when I attempt to install a SQL cluster, the setup support rules section fails with a cluster shared disk available error.

So it's basically saying I don't have shared storage available which isn't true because I have at least 3 drives sitting in failover cluster manager ready for use and online.

I've just tired running the entire thing from node2 and get the same result.

Can anyone help me?

Rerun Cluster Validation, if it succeeds, and the installation still gives you this problem, there is a workaround in this article:
