    <description>&lt;P&gt;Greetings!&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have a two node cluster with a quorum disk.&amp;nbsp; I have two front end nics servicing application traffic and 2 backend nics on a private network for cluster communication.&amp;nbsp; I want the cluster to stay quorate if I lose one of my backend nics and still have access to my quorum disk.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I am having difficulties creating a working configuration for this scenerio.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Bottom line is, if I lose a backend nic, the front end nic is still serving up my applications so, the cluster noded are still technically functioning in spite of the fact that I may not have internode cluster communications.&amp;nbsp; My thought was that adding a quorum disk would allow the cluster to remain quorate even if I lose backend communications.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Does anyone have any thoughts on this?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;David A. Ray&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;AC7UB&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;A href="mailto:davidallenray@gmail.com" target="_blank"&gt;davidallenray@gmail.com&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
