Cluster Storage - 2 servers same disk space sharing problem

[Dmitry_31]

Hi
I installed Shared Cluster Storage, connected 2 DL380G3 servers to it (using 5312 SCSI controllers, not built-in 5i). I didn't connect servers to each other using the provided cross-over cable because I don't want to build cluster at the moment. I've created the array and a logical volume on it. Both servers (windows 2000 advanced server installed) can see this logical drive. When I create any file or folder on that drive the other server doesn't see this file or folder and the free space information on that server doesn't change accordingly. But when I reboot this server it can see these new files and folders. What can I do to solve this problem? I'd like both servers to see the files straight after they were placed on the shared disk.
Thank you in advance,
Dmitry

Hi,
you cannot just share a disk vvolume in that way, you need some kind of aplication in order to share the data, MS Cluster is one of these. the behaviour that you are seen is normal if this service is not installed.
