Step 5. Specifying a cluster group

A cluster group is a special failover cluster role that contains common resources for all nodes. You have two options:

• Creating a new cluster group.

  This option is recommended in most cases. The new cluster group will contain all common resources that relate to the Administration Server instance.

• Selecting an existing cluster group.

  Select this option if you want to use a common resource that is already associated with an existing cluster group. For example, you may want to use this option if you want to use a storage associated with an existing cluster group and if there are no other available storage for a new cluster group.
