Hi Edwin,

I am new to SRDF/ CE and we have cluster enabler in our environment. 2 weeks back we had DR testing and CE did not failover few of the devices and they write disabled.

After checking we got to know that those devices were not added to cluster group.  Now that we need to add those devices to the cluster group and would like to know the procedure. I was given below kb article but that is light confusing.

Since they are existing devices and mount point are already created and I want to know if we can add the disks without un-mounting the drives. Since critical application is running we don't get long outage window. Please help me with this.

We have windows 2008 server.

The article which I referred was:
