Windows 2012 Clustering With Quorum Disk

Hi,

I have a windows 2012 cluster environment  that consists of two SQL servers nodes with Quorum disk configured as witness.
Manual failover between nodes is working fine, however the sql instance virtual is  not seeing the Quorum disk.

Moreover the Quorum disk has the same number as another cluster storage disk, is that considered a problem?
When I move the SQL instance from a node to anohter, should the Quorum Disk change ownership as well to that destination node ? if it is not changing ownership what would be the problem??

Thanks,

TF

Re run the cluster validation report and check for errors, also check the event and cluster logs for issues too

Quorum disk is for cluster's functionality. they can stay on any node. The drives used by SQL would move with SQL resource.

Hello - The Quorum disk can reside on any Node & that's not an issue at all. Having said this, if you restart the machine that is currently hosting the Quorum, you would see Quorum disk moving to the other one seamlessly

Hope this helps !
