I have to change our storage system from an EMC clariion to a Hitachi system. I have an exchange 2000 server running on a windows 2000 advanced server, conneted with two Emulex 8000 adapters to the EMC Clariion system. If I can connect my cluster nodes simultanously to both storage boxes I have no problem to move the Quorum disk. Is there any supported way to change the quorum disk, if there is no possibility to connect to both storage systems simultanously ? Thanks MC
The cluster recovery tool will allow you do this. It is a free part of the Windows Server 2003 Resource kit.

Is it possible to use this tool on windows 2000 clusters ? "Rodney R.

I believe it is, though I have never tried.
