Creating cluster and storage problem

Quorum exists to prevent "split brain" clusters where each node thinks
it owns the cluster and tries to bring resources online without the
other node. Under Windows 2003 and earlier, the Quorum disk was the
absolute winning token. Whoever had it always broke all voting ties
within the cluster. The cluster "votes" to determine who makes the
final decisions on ownership. The down side is if the quorum disk went
away, the whole cluster crashed.

With Windows 2008, you only need a quorom disk on smaller clusters with
even numbers of nodes. The quorum disk now gets just one vote just like
each node.

As for the storage issue, turn off one cluster node and work on getting
the iSCSI storage to work attached to just the starting cluster node.
Then try to get it working on the other node (with the first node
powered off). Once you have it working on each node independently, you
can work on using it as a cluster resource.

I will try again. Thank you so much.
