Hey Experts,
Firstly I hope I'm posting this in the right spot, if not please direct me to the right place.
So we're trying to install a High Available Java 7.4 SR1 system on a windows 2012 system with windows 2012 clustering.
We installed the database, and many other databases clustered without a problem.
When we start the First Cluster Node installation through SWPM we get the log off and log on, afterwards the installation continues, we chose for Unicode and than before we get the option screen to select the SAP system ID, the Network parameters and the shared drive an error pops up:
Getting drive letters of resource 'BO3DATA1' failed.
This is a correct error seeing as we are working with mount points, so we have a 1GB LUN called BO3ROOT and in it we have 3 more LUNS (mount points) called BO3DATA1, etc.
We look further in the logs we also find this:
WARNING 2015-02-05 16:36:19.474
Unable to get information about path \\LABEL.ASC\ using GetVolumeInformation. Operating system error message: The specified path is invalid.
WARNING 2015-02-05 16:36:26.355
Getting drive letters of ClusterResource 'Validating drive letters of resource 'BO3SQL' failed
Resource belongs to group 'SQL Server (BO3)' and is in state 'OnlinegetDriveLetters(): device name 'Disk6ClusterPartition1' has invalid format. Should be '[a-zA-Z]:'' failed.
For the record we presume that we are getting those resource names as errors because they are alphabetically first.
if anyone got any idea why this is happening I'd be more than greatfull.
