Please troubleshoot this nodes connectivity to the storage device and network connectivity. When accessing a CSV volume from a passive non coordinator node, the disk IO to the owning coordinator node is routed through a preferred network adapter and requires SMB be enabled on that network adapter. For SMB connections to work on these network adapters, the following protocols must be enabled Client for Microsoft Networks File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks Review each cluster node and verify the following protocols are enabled the network adapters available for Cluster use. Client for Microsoft Networks File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks 1. Click Start, click Run, type ncpa. OK. 2.

KB2. 63. 71. 97 CSV LUNs fail if you use a VSS hardware provider to back up virtual machines on a Windows Server 2. R2 based cluster. Consider the following scenario You configure a failover cluster that consists of servers that are running Windows Server 2. R2. You create a cluster shared volume CSV that includes some virtual machines that are owned by different cluster nodes. You back up the virtual machines by using a Volume Shadow Copy Service VSS hardware provider. For example, you back up a protection group in Microsoft System Center Data Protection Manager DPM 2. The owner of the CSV changes during the backup process. In this scenario, the CSV logical unit numbers LUNs enter a failed state, and do not come online on the next cluster node. Therefore, the backup process fails. Notes. This issue does not occur if you do not use a VSS hardware provider to back up the virtual machines. This issue does not occur if the change of owner of the CSV is not triggered during the backup process. This issue occurs because the Cluster service incorrectly accesses stale information to determine whether a CSV LUN is in the correct state to start the backup process.
