maximum device size on DMX3-4 is ~64G. Maximum number of meta members is 255 so you can create a 65G x 255 = 16T device. You are correct, MS Clustering does not support dynamic drive, so if you think you LUN will be greater than 2TB ..make sure to format it as GPT.
We are building Windows 2008 cluster server for SQL 5. What is the largest lun size for DMX-4. Our Database is expected to grow to close to 3TB. I was told that we cannont use dynamic volumes for Windows 2008 Cluster. Please HELP!
