    Hi
    My aim is to do sql server 2005 DB clustering, but before that I need to do windows 2003 enterprise cluster. We have two identical blade servers accessing SAN disks.
    Could any one please help how to create shared array and qourum drives. My blade server are having windows 2003 enterprise os installed on c drive which is on the local drive (30 GB of each blade). I have allocated 50GB on SAN which will be accessible both blade server. From the 50GB I have allocated 2GB for quorum and 48 for shared.
    Please let me know if I am on the right track.
    Thanx..
