users can use the CLX resource configuration utility integrated with CSV cluster resource in the Failover Cluster or use the HP 3PAR Resource Configuration Tool (Clx3PARResConfig.exe) to configure the CLX resource for CSV disk.
System resources
Monitor the system resources on a regular basis as part of Windows administration. If any system resource usage by the cluster service is reaching maximum levels, stop and then restart the cluster service. This action automatically fails over the resources and resets system resources. See the Windows cluster documentation for information about how to stop a cluster service.
An alternate method is to manually move all resources to another node in the cluster before stopping the cluster service. After all resources are successfully moved to another node, stop and then restart the cluster service; then, manually move back all resources.
Logs
If the HP 3PAR Cluster Extension log files need to be cleared and reset (for example, to reduce disk space usage), you can delete the files. HP 3PAR Cluster Extension automatically creates new log files.
NOTE: On Windows Server 2012, if VM management functionality is used by customer, the logs for this feature will be created in the same location. But the name of the file is VMClxMscs.log
TIP: Archive the log files before deleting them.
In the HP 3PAR Cluster Extension log file (clxmscs.log), live migration messages include the prefix CLX_LM to help you differentiate live migration issues from HP 3PAR Cluster Extension log messages.

Virtual Machine Management hosted on a Cluster Shared Volume on Windows Server 2012
Cluster Shared Volumes of Windows Server 2012, support virtualized workloads to create virtual machines on Cluster Shared Volumes in the Failover Cluster Manager. These VMs are the highly available virtual machines as these are managed by the Failover Cluster.
CSV Disk resource can be owned by one cluster node whereas highly available VMs which are created on the CSV disk can be owned by the same cluster node or any other cluster node. The node which owns the CSV disk resource is called as the
