Hi, I have a strange issue regarding setup of MS cluster on server 2012, after i follow to the letter the instruction how to setup in the box cluster i get error on cluster validation. I have vcenter 5.1 and esxi 5.1 and i followed Setup for Failover Clustering and Microsoft Cluster Service ESXi 5.1, vCenter Server 5.1 document i found on vmware site, after i create and configure two VM by the specification listed in document (Clustering MSCS Virtual Machines on a Single Host) i select cluster validation and got a following error: Validate Storage Spaces Persistent Reservation failed.
I suspected on storage but HP P2000 g3 support SCSI-3. After that i decided to create Quorum disk on local datastore and i used a virtual disk with SCSI BUS Sharing as virtual which is also suported and i got a same error. After that i recreated all on another system (using EVA6400 and HP BL460c gen 8) and again same error. It does not matter if i use a virtual disk or Non-pass-through RDM (virtual compatibility mode) as a quorum again same error. If i can not clear this issue i will not be able to use Microsoft support on the cluster because first thing they ask is a cluster validation raport that need to be with out an error.
Thanks
