| | Max volume size - Cluster readiness Hiya, Is there a maximum volume size on VS2005 R2? I am in the progress of migrating the file data to a VS Guest and trying to figure out if it's better to create a disk per share or create 1 disk to host all shares?I'm looking at approx 1.5 TB. We are planning to eventually cluster the VS's so have the quorum and shared area on our san. To add a scsi controller and disk in excess of 127GB i need to add a scsi controller to the guest. Does this mean the guest can only have 1 volume on the shared scsi controller? |

| | Re: Max volume size - Cluster readiness I currently have a virtualized cluster and am quite happy with it, however like yourself have found that I can only put one disk onto a shared scsi controller. You can however have multiple shared scsi controllers with out any negative effects. I could be wrong but I believe that the issue is by design.
