We have two cluster which are working great.
Now we decided to allocated another Drive on our SAN to the data files.

I see the new Drive in the cluster administration called R

But when i go to it and add database inside of SQL

It gives error:
Only formatted files on which the cluster resource can be used.

Any suggestions.

Have you added the New SAN Drive to the SQL Server Resource group in Cluster Administrator?

Thanks....no the network guy forgot that part.
So we have to stop SQL then add the SQL Server Resource group in Cluster Administrator?
and restart SQL

Thanks very much
