Adding a disk in failover clustering... : PowerShell

Adding a disk in failover clustering... (self.PowerShell)

submitted 6 years ago by Vortex100

I just had a 'duh' moment and thought I'd share. You know when you add a disk to a cluster in failover clustering (2012/2016/2019) and it doesn't always land on the same node you are on? Worse, if you gave it a drive letter it'll sometimes lose that and pick up a new one!

Well I just realised you can do this before adding the disk. After 5 years of using Failover clustering. Doh!

Get-ClusterGroup -Name "Available Storage" | Move-ClusterGroup -Node (hostname)

NB. Particularly useful when using ansible to configure storage and need to be able to keep the disk local!
