Most clustered applications require one of the types of shared storage that were described previously in this chapter. If, for example, you add iSCSI shared storage on each cluster node after you create a cluster, the failover cluster won't be aware of the attached storage and you'll need to add the storage manually. You can do that using the Failover Cluster Manager console or PowerShell:
- Open the Failover Cluster Manager console
- Expand Storage under the created cluster, right-click on Disks, and select Add Disk:
- On the Add Disks to Cluster page, select the desired disk and click OK
If you want to do this using PowerShell, run the following command:
Get-ClusterAvailableDisk | Add-ClusterDisk
Note that cmdlet Add-ClusterDisk can't define what disk will be added to the cluster, so you need to bind two different cmdlets.
When this task is complete, you can proceed with adding a clustered role.
