Running the program makes all the shared logical drives available for access
by Server A.
4. Using the Windows NT Disk Administrator, format all shared logical drives as
NTFS (NT File System), assign volume labels, and specify drive letters for
each.
Important
Before creating the ServeRAID logical cluster resource, you must assign a permanent
(sticky) drive letter to the shared logical drive on both servers.
When configuring a cluster, you must assign a permanent drive letter because the two
servers must have the same drive letters on each shared logical drive. If you do not assign
permanent drive letters, Windows NT might assign different drive letters on each server. You
must assign a permanent drive letter to ensure Windows NT assigns the same drive letter
to the partition on both servers.
Notes:
a. It is helpful if part of the volume label that you assign contains the drive
letter that you assigned to the drive, such as DRIVE E.
b. If you want to use the disk in a cluster, create only one partition on the
disk. Make the partition the full size of the disk and format the partition to
NTFS.
5. On Server B, run the same utility, IPSHAHTO.EXE, to make all shared logical
drives available for access by Server B.
6. On Server B, use the Windows NT Disk Administrator to assign the same drive
letters that you assigned to each drive on Server A.
Note: Use the volume label as a guide to make sure you assign the same
letters on Server B as you assigned on Server A.
7. On Server A, run IPSHAHTO.EXE again, so that Server A regains control of all
shared logical drives.
8. On Server A, install the Microsoft Cluster Service (MSCS) software.
Note: The directory name and path where the MSCS software is installed
must be the same on both servers.
To start the installation, do the following.
Important
You must use the localquorum option when installing the Microsoft Cluster Service (MSCS)
software with ServeRAID controllers.
a. Insert the Windows NT Server Enterprise Edition Component CD into the
CD-ROM drive on Server A, type the following command at the command
line and press Enter.
d :\MSCS\CLUSTER\I386\SETUP /localquorum
where d is the CD-ROM drive letter.
Note: You must type the parameter “localquorum” in lowercase.
b. Install the Microsoft Cluster Service software following the instructions in
the documentation that is included with the MSCS software.
Server A will restart when the installation is completed.
