Microsoft® Windows Server® 2008
Operating System Important
Information
Using the Snapshot Virtual Disk Feature of
Dell PowerVault™ MD3000 in Microsoft
Windows Server 2008 Failover Clustering
Snapshot Virtual Disk captures point-in-time images of a virtual disk for
backup, testing, or data processing without affecting the contents of the
source virtual disk. The Snapshot Virtual Disk can be mapped to the primary
node (the node owning the source disk) or the secondary node (the node not
owning the source disk).
For mounting the snapshot volume to the primary node, turn on the
maintenance mode as described in step 1 to step 5. The snapshot volume is in
reserved state and thus inaccessible if the maintenance mode for the cluster
source disk is not turned on.
NOTE: In Windows Server 2008 failover clustering you cannot turn on the
maintenance mode for the witness disk.
The following steps describe the procedure for configuring snapshot in
Windows Server 2008 failover clustering and mapping it to the primary mode:
1 Turn on Maintenance mode on the source cluster disk using the Failover
Cluster Management console.
a
Click Start
→ Administrative Tools→ Failover Cluster Management
console.
b
Right-click the disk for which you want to turn on the maintenance
mode.
