<p>I am setting up a print cluster on a pair of Windows 2008 server using iSCSI.

When I attached the LUNs to both servers, they are offline. My questions is do I have to make them both online for both servers, or do I just make them online for one server, and only make them online for the other server if the failover occur.<br/><br/>Mon, 29 Jun 2009 14:17:12 Z2009-06-29T14:17:12Zhttp://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverClustering/thread/8c7dc4d8-6f41-4759-8df2-b4e497d35f5b#4076b6a1-496c-4705-bf0b-c7bf94ac1086http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverClustering/thread/8c7dc4d8-6f41-4759-8df2-b4e497d35f5b#4076b6a1-496c-4705-bf0b-c7bf94ac1086ND82http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Profile/en-US/?user=ND82Hi!<br/><br/>When you connect the LUN the first time to the nodes, they appear offline on both of them. At this time they are not part of the cluster. You can now take the disks online on one node and create a filesystem on them. In case you have already created the cluster you can now add the disks to the cluster (failover cluster mmc, storage, add storage). Now they are part of the cluster and can be moved from one node to the other, but they are only online on one node at the time.<br/><br/>If you have any more questions, just ask...<br/><br/>Hope that helps,<br/>AndreasThu, 02 Jul 2009 08:43:36 Z2009-07-02T08:43:36Zhttp://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverClustering/thread/8c7dc4d8-6f41-4759-8df2-b4e497d35f5b#477aedfa-bfa5-45fe-a7ad-556b3656da47http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverClustering/thread/8c7dc4d8-6f41-4759-8df2-b4e497d35f5b#477aedfa-bfa5-45fe-a7ad-556b3656da47hkg04http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Profile/en-US/?user=hkg04Thanks for all the info.Thu, 02 Jul 2009 15:34:03 Z2009-07-02T15:34:03Zhttp://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverClustering/thread/8c7dc4d8-6f41-4759-8df2-b4e497d35f5b#c925918d-e3de-479a-92d6-75b9804bfe20http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverClustering/thread/8c7dc4d8-6f41-4759-8df2-b4e497d35f5b#c925918d-e3de-479a-92d6-75b9804bfe20Constantin.Vhttp://social.technet.microsoft.com/Profile/en-US/?user=Constantin.VI would recoomend you to use as iSCSI target only product from Starwind. Recently I`ve made cluster on iSCSI and in for failover I used RAID-0 based on this iSCSI - really great option!<br/>Tue, 21 Jul 2009 12:02:54 Z2009-07-21T12:02:54Z
