Backing Up Data in a Cluster (MSCS)

When backing up data that reside on cluster node disks, you need to distinguish between:

•Local cluster node disks

•Shared cluster node disks

In the Data Protector GUI, you can see only local disks listed for each cluster node. On the other hand, you can see cluster virtual server items that contain only shared disks for the group in which they are defined. This prevents creation of a backup specification for backing up shared disks. Such backup would fail in case the shared disks are not available on a specific cluster node.
