FSRM error when accessing Quotas in 2008 Cluster
- I have a 2 node Win 2008 failover cluster configured. I am attempting to place a quota on a folder. I have successfully configured a custom quota by copying a template and there was no problem doing that. When I open File Server Resource Manager and select Quotas under Quota Management I receive "An unexpected error has occurred. Please check application event log for more information."
The two recurring errors are;
Source:SRMSVC
EventID:8228
Level:Warning
Keywords:Classic
User:N/A
File Server Resource Manager was unable to access the following file or volume: '\\?\Volume{08c088fc-5c83-11de-a34d-8205262810df}\System Volume Information\SRM\quota.xml'. This file or volume might be locked by another application right now, or you might need to give Local System access to it.

"
I have no other quotas configured on the cluster. I am attempting the quota configuration on the active node and not the cluster virtual frontend. I am a member of domain admins. I have also tried to run the MMC using the 'Run as Admin' and no luck. I logged on to the member server's local admin account and run the MMC from that with the same result. Quite the frustration!! I also get an access denied error when I browse to the 'E:\System Volume Information' folder however, running a command prompt with elevated privileges I can cd to E:\system volume information\SRM but I am unable to list any folders or files and I get an access denied message.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hello,
From the error message, it seems that the System account could have no adequate permission on that root volume.
“File Server Resource Manager was unable to access the following file or volume: '\\?\Volume{08c088fc-5c83-11de-a34d-8205262810df}\System Volume Information\SRM\quota.xml'. This file or volume might be locked by another application right now, or you might need to give Local System access to it.”
Could you please make sure that the System account has Full Control permission on the root of the drive in the cluster environment?
Hope it helps.

Due to a customer requirement the cluster was destroyed over the weekend and rebuild with a new name. I was hoping this might fix my problem but it did not :-( However, thought I would update the thread with my troubleshooting actions in case it narrows down the source of the issue.

- I hope this may help to resolve your issue.
1) While launching the File Server Resource Manager on the server we were getting the following error “Unexpected error check eventlog for more information “ once we checked we found the below.
Event Type: Warning
Event Source: SRMSVC
Event Category: None
Event ID: 8228
Date: 29-9-2009
Time: 15:13:59
User: N/A
Computer: KLUCLSAPL022
Description:
File Server Resource Manager was unable to access the following file or volume: '\\?\Volume{f1e58161-a0b4-11db-8bb3-00145e675066}\System Volume Information\SRM\quota.xml'. This file or volume might be locked by another application right now, or you might need to give Local System access to it.
2) We went ahead and checked the following files under the below folder M:\System Volume Information\SRM & found that the system account was missing , we added the system account and tried to launch the application again and it worked fine.
This is surely going to fix your issue.
