Need a little help.  I'm about to set up a TSM for Microsoft cluster server.  It will 
be an active/active configuration.  I plan on doing it as follows:


Machinge A
Physical disk H is a cluster group

Machine B
Physical disk I is a cluster group

Physical disk Q (quorum) is a cluster group

Machine A (normally owns disk H)
install local scheduler... always running
install scheduler for cluster group H (pointing to a dsm.opt file on the H drive)... 
always running
install scheduler for cluster group Q (pointing to a dsm.opt file on the Q drive)... 
always running
install failover scheduler pointing to the dsm.opt file on the I: drive which will 
manage cluster group I: in the event of failure (this will be a "Generic Service 
Resource for Failover" this
scheduler is not on auto start=yes)

Machine B (normally owns disk I:)
install local scheduler... always running
install scheduler for cluster group I (pointing to a dsm.opt file on the I drive)... 
always running
install scheduler for cluster group Q (pointing to a dsm.opt file on the Q drive)... 
always running
install failover scheduler pointing to the dsm.opt file on the H: drive which will 
manage cluster group H:in the event of Machine A failure.  (this will be a "Generic 
Service Resource for Failover"
this scheduler is not on auto start=yes)


Here are my two questions:
Should the scheduler for Q be running on both machine A and machine B?

For machine A...when I set up "Depencies" in cluster manager for the "Generic Service 
Resource for Failover" and it states to "add all physical disk resources", do I add 
both H and I?

I can't seem to get a straight answer on this one.

Regards, Joe
