2.In the dialog box, type File Share Service for the new group name.

You may also want to select one of the nodes as the preferred owner of the group.

3.Use the New Resource wizard to create a disk resource called “File Share Disk,” or move an existing shared disk resource from another group.

4.Set the Resource Type in the dialog box as Physical Disk. Select both nodes as possible owners and select a shared disk.

There is no dependency for a physical disk.

5.Use the New Resource wizard to create an IP address resource called “File Share IP.”

6.Set the Resource Type as IP Address. Select both nodes as possible owners and then fill in an IP address and the subnet mask for your public LAN.

There is no dependency for IP addresses.

7.Use the New Resource wizard to create a network name resource called “File Share NetName.”

8.Set the Resource Type as Network Name. Select both nodes as possible own- ers. Set File Share IP as the dependency for File Share NetName. Then type a network name that will be visible to clients (for example, sharedfile).

9.Use the New Resource wizard to create a File Share resource called “XYZ Files.”

10.Set the Resource Type as File Share. Select both nodes as possible owners. Set File Share Disk, File Share IP, and File Share NetName as the dependencies for the XYZ Files resource. Then type the share name and share path in the Param- eters tab.

For example, you can configure y:\groupfiles as share name xyzfiles.

NOTE: When creating a File Share resource in Microsoft Cluster Server, do not use “m” as the share name of the resource. Cluster Server rejects “m” as a File Share resource name.

After bringing both the resources and the group online, users can use Windows NT Explorer to map xyzfiles to a local drive.

The Print Spooler service is a Cluster Server resource type that can be used to pro- vide fail-over capabilities for print spooling. Like the IIS Virtual Root and the File Share service, the Print Spooler service also depends on disk, IP address, and network name resources; these resources are placed in the same resource group.

The following example procedure describes how to set up the Print Spooler service using an HP LaserJet 5M printer. The procedure differs slightly for different printers.
