Cluster Administration Cluster Concepts Microsoft cluster concepts are rather straight forward when explained through a diagram. Figure 116 illustrates a typical cluster configuration with the corresponding storage elements. The diagram progresses from the physical disks to the file shares, showing the relationship between both the cluster elements and the physical devices underlying them. While the diagram only illustrates two nodes, the same concepts apply for multi node deployments. Sequence of Events for Cluster Resources The sequence of events in the diagram includes: 1. Physical disks are combined into RAID arrays and LUNs. 2. LUNS are designated as basic disks, formatted and assigned a drive letter via Disk Manager 3. Physical Disk resource are created for each basic disk inside cluster administrator. 4. Directories and folders are created on assigned drives. 5. Cluster components (virtual servers, file shares) are created, organized in groups, and placed within the folders using cluster administrator exclusively. 200 NAS 4000s and 9000s Administration Guide
