Hi, I am getting following errors in my Cluster Validation report when trying to create a Windows Cluster.

I have 2 nodes DB01 and DB02 . Each has 1 public ip, 1 private ip (for heartbeat), 2 private ips for SAN1 and SAN2. The private ip's to SAN are directly connected via Network Adaptor in DB01 and DB02.

Can you please guide on this.

Move the disks into the SQL cluster group in cluster manager.

Hi,

This error is occurring before I am trying to create a new Windows Cluster.

Its not addition of disks in existing Windows cluster.

I thought the error was occurring when you are trying to install SQL Server on a Windows cluster?

Where are you seeing this error? Is it in the SQL Server installation? Or somewhere else? Please elaborate.

Hi,
I am seeing this error, when trying to create a windows cluster between 2 nodes with shared storage. I found the disks are dynamic. Does this needs to be basic ??

I can only help with the SQL Server installation or once SQL Server is installed. Your question would likely need to be answered by a server administrator rather than a DBA. Someone might be able to help you here at SQLTeam, but you might get quicker help on a site that specializes in Windows administration and specifically Windows failover clusters.
