NOTE:
A le share resource must reside in the same cluster group as the phy sical disk resource it will
reside on.
Thephysicaldiskresourcespecied in this step must resi de in the same cluster group as specied in
the beginning of this wizard.
Creating NFS share resources
To create an NFS share resource, refer to "MSNFS administration on a server cluster"onpage136.
Shadow copies in a cluster
It is recomm ende d that the location of the cache le be placed on a separate disk from the original data.
In this case, a physical disk resource for the cache le disk should be created in the same cluster group
as the intended Shadow Copy resource and the volume for which snapshots will be enabled. The
resource should be created prior to the establishment of Shadow Copies. The Shadow Copy resourc e
should be dependent on both the original physical disk resource and the physical disk resource that
contains the cache le.
For more information, refer to the following topics in the clustering online help:

3. Run Command View EVA on the storage server to increase the size of the presented EVA LUN.
4. Run Microsoft DiskPart.exe to add the additional space to the volume.
For additional information associated with extending a LUN in a cluster, see the following Microsoft
