Create the physical disk resources for the Insight software
and SQL resource groups
Continuing in the Cluster Administrator, for each of the resource groups just created (CMS-HA Group
and SQL Group), add its shared disk resource. If you use an existing instance of Microsoft SQL Server
2005, you need to create only the Insight software disk resource. Table 2 relates the group names,
their disk resource names, and shared disk drive letters as used in this paper.
