Assigning the Virtual Disks to Cluster Nodes
NOTE: For best practices, configure at least one virtual disk for each application.
If multiple NTFS partitions are created on a single LUN or virtual disk, these
partitions are not able to failover individually from node-to-node.
To perform data I/O to the virtual disks, assign the virtual disks to a cluster
node by performing the following steps:
1
Open a Web browser.
2
In the
Address
field, type the storage system IP address. The Navisphere
Express console appears.

Login with the user name and password that was created during the
storage initialization.
