I am trying to install a cluster with windows 2000 advanced server
servicepack 3.
I can succesfully install the first node and create a cluster with ip
address and shared folders. However if i try to install the second
node i get an error.
Both server have 1 ide disk (which the OS is on) and both have 1
internal scsi disk (which will contain the data) and is connected on a
Adaptec SCSI controller. Both scsi disks are basic disks whith a NTFS
formatted primary paritition. Both bootdisks are drive C, both scsi
disks are Disk D. Both cd-rom drives are F. But when i use the wizard
on the second node to configure it following happens:
- I have to access the cluster, which i can do successfully
- I have to login which I can do successfully too
- But when i finish the the wizard, it says Drive D is already in use
and that i should use disk manager to change the drive letter before
bringing the service online, because else the service will do that and
applications could fail to run. However this d-disk is the scsi disk
which is empty and should be used for the cluster. This error is
followed by: The system cannot find the file specified.
When i look in the cluster administrator this resource (d-disk) had
been made, but is off line and has a exclamation with it. When i look
in the properties, the selected drive d is no longer selected, but the
field is empy.
When i delete this object en create a new resource and choose for
physical disk, name it en select the empty d-drive again, i still get
the message: The system cannot find the file specified Error 2
(00000002).
What can i do???
By the way, it is possible though to have an internal scsi harddisk in
both servers and both containing the date saved on the cluster (kind
of mirroring) or does it has to be an external drive??? think not...
Please help me.
Kind regards.
