so i've built up my w2k3 ent 64bit cluster with no problems... its all happy
and working well... created the DTC resource and went to install SQL.. it
goes well until it asks what group to put it in and what disk to use for the
data files.
I select the group and the path it presents is correct. I click Next and it
tells me it doesnt have enough space.
the drive is a 500GB partition which i would assume is more than large
enough.
Im able to access the storage just fine, have written data there, it fails
over just fine... looks fine to me..
why on earth is it telling me 500GB isnt enough?!
PS: if anyone from MS is looking at this, your link to diagnose the error
sent me off to a message about using a strong password for SA.... i assume
thats wrong 
Thanks
Justin

Silly questions, I'm sure you've checked. Is the quorum disk available with
ample free space? How about the volume where you are storing the executables
(e.g., c:\program files\yada yada)?

That would be good - I have run into remote installs not showing all the
options for install, but not the error you've seen. Either copying the ISOs
to the local disk (I use Daemon tools to run) or the disk contents have
helped my problems with the install.

both C and D have about 28GB and those are the local drives. the Quorum
drive is 500MB and is only using about 10MB (hopefully sql doesnt try to
touch this drive) and the shared drive has 500GB..
I am installing this from a network share.... im going to move the files
local and give that a try... it could make a difference..

another stupid question perhaps, but when you are installing, does the
installer actually list the clustered drive that you are to use for the sql
files? If not then the lack of space will be related to the fact that it is
not actually seeing a drive with space.

yeah, when you pick a cluster group it looks for disks in that group and
automatically assigns the following path; X:\Microsoft SQL Server
I have two groups and i can watch it auto upate the drive letter in the path
between Q and R... Q, as you can guess is for my Quorum and R is for my
data. I obviously try to install with the group containing the R drive,
which is 500GB and completely empty...
I did notice that for some reason my drives are accessible (not just
visable) to both cluster nodes (and its an active passive, i think? or at
least that was the goal)
Im not entirely sure how to make a cluster a/a vs a/p

FIXED!
I think my problem was that both systems had access to the drive.. I had
shut node 2 off while building the cluster so im not sure what i did
different this time but now i can only use the drives from the active
node...
Thanks guys
