Disk configuration (active node and standby node)

Make the 50 GB disk attached to the cluster node available in Windows Disk Management. The configuration is as follows.

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 $driveLetter -FileSystem "NTFS" -NewFileSystemLabel "New Volume" -Force
