One of the nodes on our active/passive cluster lost connection to the SAN due to a faulty port on our fibre switch recently. Now this node shows none of the resources to be available. The quorum and two other disk partions show up in disk management as unavailable on this passive node. Is this normal behavior or has something not come back online?
Well, even if there is faulty port in the SAN, the passive node still wouldn't see the drives as available, and that is by design. Otherwise, when more than one node can access the drive at the same time, the content of that drive can get corrupt. The cluster service is designed to make sure that only one node can access a drive at a time.
