Exchange cluster shared disk array configuration

[craeg]

Hello all.<br>We are setting up an Exchange cluster. Everything goes perfectly until we go to run exchange optimizer.&nbsp;&nbsp;The optimizer gives me the warning message that i only have one logical drive.&nbsp;&nbsp;The disk array is configured so that there are three drives.&nbsp;&nbsp;Off the top of my head it seems to me that the drives were created incorrectly.&nbsp;&nbsp;Any ideas?<br>Thanks for any help<br>Joe<br>

When you look at the availble volumes does it show you 3 volumes?&nbsp;&nbsp;Optimizer is looking at the availble resources.&nbsp;&nbsp;It may be that 1, a raid array of all three drives have been created, or 2, the other volumes have not been created and formated yet.&nbsp;&nbsp;I would go back to Disk administrator and look to see what it gives you.

ok - a little more info on the problem.&nbsp;&nbsp;The array is about 70 gigs.&nbsp;&nbsp;I created one extended partition and carved three logical drives out of it.&nbsp;&nbsp;One 2 gig drive, one 5 gig drive, and one 62 gig drive.&nbsp;&nbsp;On the owner of the cluster the only drive i can double click on is the 2 gig drive.&nbsp;&nbsp;Click on the other two drives gives me an incorrect function error.&nbsp;&nbsp;When i go to install exchange on the other larger shared cluster drives it tells me that i do not own the drives and to see my administrator for permission.<br><br>Any ideas?<br>HELP
