Storage-system hard-disk drives must be bound into logical unit numbers (LUNs)
using the Dell OpenManage Data Supervisor or Data Administrator. All LUNs, espe-
cially the LUN used for the Microsoft Cluster Server quorum resource, should be
bound using a redundant arrays of independent disks (RAID) level to ensure high avail-
ability. See “Setting Up the Quorum Resource” found later in this chapter for more
information on the quorum resource.
NOTE: Use a RAID level other than RAID 0. RAID 0 does not provide the level of avail-
ability required for the quorum resource.
Consult the
Installation and Troubleshooting Guide
for your PowerVault storage sys-
tem for more information about setting up RAID levels for the system.

Using an optional PowerEdge Expandable RAID Controller, you can set up hardware-
based RAID by using the controller’s configuration utility. Start the utility by pressing
<Ctrl><m> during the system’s power-on self-test (POST). For the best performance,
the recommended configuration for the internal drives is RAID 1. Additionally, the
default for connecting the controller to the internal drives is channel 0.
NOTE: Currently, Microsoft Cluster Server does not support software-based fault-
tolerance using the Windows NT Disk Administrator and the
ftdisk
driver with any of
the hard-disk drives in the shared storage subsystem. However,
ftdisk
can be used
with the internal hard-disk drives of the cluster nodes. See “Using the ftdisk Driver”
found later in this chapter.
