Adding extra disks   
Hi,

I am following the Microsoft example on creating an Exchange cluster but I 
have run into a problem with Physical Disks. I have a second spare disk 
which I cannot add to the cluster. When I go to add physical disk nothing 
shows.

What am I doing wrong?

Windows 2003 R2 Ent

Thanks,
Gorge

Re: Adding extra disks   
If this is a shared disk and not local..

Are you doing this over a terminal server session? If you have just rescaned 
the disk subsystem via Disk Management you will have to log off and then 
back on again before the disk will show up in Add > Physical Disk in Cluster 
Administrator.
