c. Using the Windows 2000 Disk Management Snap-in Computer Management
program, assign the same drive letters that you assigned to the new drives
on Server A.
Note: Use the disk volume label as a guide to make sure you assign the
same drive letters on Server B as you assigned on Server A.
d. To create a new ServeRAID disk resource and group for each newly defined
logical drive on Server B, start the MSCSCFG.EXE program by typing:
% systemroot %\cluster\mscscfg.exe
where %systemroot% is expanded by the operating system to the root
directory of the operating system on Server B.
Deleting and re-creating a ServeRAID logical drive resource
This section describes how to delete and re-create a ServeRAID logical drive
resource without deleting a ServeRAID logical drive.
Complete the following steps to delete a resource or resource group:
1. To delete the resource, run the Microsoft Cluster Administration program from
the cluster server that currently owns the ServeRAID resource or resource
group.
Notes:
a. The cluster service must be running on both servers.
b. You can also run the Microsoft Cluster Administration program from a
remote administration system.
2. Use the normal MSCS procedure for deleting a resource or a group. For
instructions, see the documentation that is included with the MSCS package.
3. After deleting the ServeRAID resource, shut down and restart the cluster server
from which the resource was deleted.
Note: Restarting one cluster server will not shut down the entire cluster.
To create the new ServeRAID disk resource and group for the ServeRAID logical
drive, start the MSCSCFG.EXE program by typing:
% systemroot %\cluster\mscscfg.exe
where %systemroot% is expanded by the operating system to the root directory of
the operating system on Server B.
