Windows 2012 building cluster help
Posted: 28. Jul 2014, 06:26
Hi All,
I am using VBOX4.3.12. i am trying to build windows 2012 cluster with out using third party tools. previously i used starwind and configured the cluster with out any issues. i have experience in building windows cluster and installing SQL cluster.
I need help in configuring the shared drives between the nodes and creating the cluster.
i created using below commands:
(reference: http://www.oracledistilled.com/virtualb ... irtualbox/) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\VBoxManage.exe" createhd --filename ssdisk1 --size 100 --variant Fixed
"C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\VBoxManage.exe" storageattach "CLnode01" --storagectl "SATA" --port 1 --device 0 --type hdd --medium ssdisk1.vdi --mtype shareable
"C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\VBoxManage.exe" storageattach "CLnode02" --storagectl "SATA" --port 1 --device 0 --type hdd --medium ssdisk1.vdi --mtype shareable
"C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\VBoxManage.exe" modifyhd ssdisk1.vdi --type shareable
----------------------------------------------------------------
i can see from both nodes this shared disk is online.
i am not sure, i may be missing something here. can any one help me in configuring the shared disks between nodes and able to create the cluster successfully.
please see the attached screen shots.
