Hi Dears,
I have a question, can you help me please? What is the best option for Quorum Witness in a WSFC with 2 nodes (one node physical and one node virtual), the Storage I use for the WSFC is HP 3PAR with Peer Persistence, I find this recommendation of Microsoft:
For multisite failover clustering with an odd number of nodes, the node majority can be used as quorum mode. However, in
this configuration, if the site with more nodes fails, manual intervention would be required to force the cluster to start at the
other site, because of loss of the quorum. With an even number of nodes, the quorum mode of node and file share majority
is a recommended option. A file share witness (FSW) is recommended since it gives the user the option to place it in a third
site. Placing an FSW in a VM on a third site with the HP 3PAR QW VM is an effective option for more resiliency with such
deployment scenarios. The file share witness should not reside on any node or VM in the cluster, and it should be visible to
all nodes in the cluster.
I know that best option is FSW, but if I can´t use this option, can I use a Disk only as Witness? Thanks!!
