Unable to add a node to
the cluster.
The new node cannot
access the shared
disks.

enumerated by the
operating system
differently on the
cluster nodes.

node can enumerate the cluster
disks using Windows Disk
Administration. If the disks do
not appear in Disk
Administration, check the
following:
• Check all cable connections
• Check the LUN assignments
•In the

One or more nodes
may have the Internet

between the nodes.
Configure the Internet

communications that are
required by the MSCS and the
clustered applications
or services.

cluster storage appear
unreadable or
uninitialized in

This situation is
normal if you stopped

Windows Server 2003,
this situation is
normal if the cluster
node does not own the
cluster disk.
