Make the 50 GB disk attached to the cluster node available in Windows Disk Management. The configuration is as follows.
New Simple Volume Wizard | |
---|---|
Simple volume size | Specify the same value as the maximum disk space |
Assign the following drive letter | D |
File system | NTFS |
Allocation unit size | Default |
Volume label | New Volume |
Perform a quick format | check |
Enable file and folder compression | uncheck |
The above settings can also be configured by running the following command in PowerShell for administrators.
- Set the variable to the number of the disk corresponding to the attached Block Volume (Boot Volume corresponds to the C drive, and the number is 0. In this example this is the first Block Volume attached, so specify 1).
PS > $diskNumber = 1
- Bring the disk online
PS > Set-Disk $diskNumber -isOffline $false
- Initialize the disk
PS > Initialize-Disk -Number $diskNumber -PartitionStyle "GPT"
- Create a partition
PS > New-Partition -DiskNumber $diskNumber -UseMaximumSize -DriveLetter "D"
- Format
PS > Format-Volume -DriveLetter "D" -FileSystem "NTFS" -NewFileSystemLabel "New Volume" -Force
