so i've built up my w2k3 ent 64bit cluster with no problems... its all happy
and working well... created the DTC resource and went to install SQL.. it
goes well until it asks what group to put it in and what disk to use for the
data files.

I select the group and the path it presents is correct. I click Next and it
tells me it doesnt have enough space.

the drive is a 500GB partition which i would assume is more than large
enough.

Im able to access the storage just fine, have written data there, it fails
over just fine... looks fine to me..

why on earth is it telling me 500GB isnt enough?!


PS: if anyone from MS is looking at this, your link to diagnose the error
sent me off to a message about using a strong password for SA.... i assume
thats wrong


Thanks
Justin

Silly questions, I'm sure you've checked. Is the quorum disk available with
ample free space? How about the volume where you are storing the executables
(e.g., c:\program files\yada yada)?
