Trying to move sql FCI tempdb to local disk and it fails with the below message. I have tried before multiple times and always works ok for FCIs - physical and virtual machines.
This one is WMware vm running Windows2016 and sql2017. local disk defined on vm host and presented to VM as local disk.
So the question is - Why the engine needs this disk to be a shared - or rather where it gets this info since the the disk is indeed a local disk and that is the whole point of using it for tempdb in this case.
Msg 5184, Level 16, State 1, Line 2 Cannot use file 'T:\TempDB\Inst1\tempdb01.mdf' for clustered server. Only formatted files on which the cluster resource of the server has a dependency can be used. Either the disk resource containing the file is not present in the cluster group or the cluster resource of the Sql Server does not have a dependency on it.
Thanks and appreciate any help or leads on this one.
