Adding a P9000 Cluster Extension resource
IMPORTANT: In Cluster Administrator (Windows Server 2003), resources are added to resource
groups. In Failover Cluster Management (Windows Server 2008/2008 R2), the term resource
groups changed to services and applications. In this guide, the term services and applications
refers to resource groups for Windows Server 2003 and services and applications for Windows
Server 2008/2008 R2.
To use P9000 Cluster Extension, you must add a P9000 Cluster Extension resource. Use one of
the following procedures to add a resource:
• For Windows Server 2003, use the Cluster Administrator GUI or cluster commands in the CLI.
For instructions, see “Adding a P9000 Cluster Extension resource using the Cluster Administrator
GUI (Windows Server 2003)” (page 24) or “Adding a P9000 Cluster Extension resource
using the Microsoft CLI cluster commands” (page 25).
• For Windows Server 2008/2008 R2, use the Failover Cluster Management GUI or cluster
commands in the CLI.
For instructions, see “Adding a P9000 Cluster Extension resource using the Failover Cluster
Management GUI (Windows Server 2008/2008 R2)” (page 25) or “Adding a P9000 Cluster
Extension resource using the Microsoft CLI cluster commands” (page 25).
• For Server Core or Hyper-V Server, use the Failover Cluster Management GUI on the remote
management station or cluster commands in the CLI.
For instructions, see “Adding a P9000 Cluster Extension resource using the Failover Cluster
Management GUI (Windows Server 2008/2008 R2)” (page 25) or “Adding a P9000 Cluster
Extension resource using the Microsoft CLI cluster commands” (page 25).
P9000 Cluster Extension resource names and service and application names must consist of only
one word. The pair/resync monitor cannot interface with a resource or a service and application
that has space characters in its name.
CAUTION: Do not use the following characters in P9000 Cluster Extension resource names: \
/ : * ? " < > |. Using these characters might affect the creation of the
resourcename.online file, which is used for the P9000 Cluster Extension resource health check
mechanism. If the file creation fails and the pair/resync monitor is not configured, the cluster will
report a failed state for the P9000 Cluster Extension resource.
