Adding dependencies using the CLI
The cluster commands in this section can be used with Windows Server 2008/2008 R2/2012,
Server Core, or Hyper-V Server.
To add a dependency on XP Cluster Extension resource using the CLI, use the following command:
cluster resource physical_disk_resource
/adddependency:Cluster_Extension_XP_resource
The following command adds a dependency on the XP Cluster Extension clx_fileshare resource
to the physical disk resource Disk_32b_00b:
cluster resource Disk_32b_00b /adddependency:clx_fileshare
Powershell cmdlets can also be used instead of cluster.exe to add dependencies. For more
information, see Microsoft documentation.
Disaster-tolerant configuration example using a file share
The following example describes a configuration in which:
• Your environment consists of four systems (host1_DCA, host2_DCA, host3_DCB and
host4_DCB).
• Your environment includes two disk arrays with serial numbers 35014 and 35013.
• You have configured clxfileshare as a device/copy group in the RAID Manager
c:\windows\horcm101.conf file and in the c:\windows\horcm102.conf file.
• A pre-executable clxpre.exe will be invoked by XP Cluster Extension.
• You use the default failover behavior for the cluster group.
• The resource CLX_FILESHARE is part of the service group CLX_SHARE and must be brought
online before the physical disk resource Disk_32b_00b.
