Has anyone out there clustered a Dell SDS (Scalable Disk System) 100 with two PowerEdge 6300's under Win2000(AS)?? If so, or have suggestions, please help....

Windows 2000 Cluster Setup is saying it cannot use 'dynamic disks' for clustering. However, the SDS 100 disk array is RAID-5, formatted NTFS. SCSI connections are setup fine and Win2000 accesses it, etc. I don't know what the deal is. I'm at wits end after 3 days now. Dell can't even help.

Hi,

have you installed SP1 for W2K, SP2 for W2k is in the moment beta, but there may some new hotfixes.

Yes SP1 is installed. Found the problem was related to WIn2000 not being able to see thru the Array controller to channel 1. Setting the SDS up on its own card (RAID-1) solves the issue.
