• Your disk definitions need to be in the same cluster group as the one you want to install your sqlserver instance on.

    Create a cluster resource group that only holds the resources, needed for the cluster. (msdtc, quorum, cluster name and cluster ip address).

    Create another cluster group for each sqlserver instance you want to host on the cluster. This group will start with the allocation of one or more drive.

    The install process of sqlserver will then define the instances ip address, name, services (dbengine, sqlagent, ...) in the targeted resource group.

    It (the install process) will also add the needed dependencies in the resource group.
