HA file server on Windows 2008 R2 failover cluster & iSCSI


we versed in ha clusters of hyper-v nodes (both using fiber channel , iscsi) - shared storage, csv hosting files, , setting vms ha.  easy peasy.

we in process of trying setup ha file server , thought easy isn't.  (it doesn't seem use csv @ all, example)  we have simple config - 2 nodes, connected via iscsi backend emc unit.  i able setup first node file server role , failover cluster feature, see storage (z:) , setup ha file server.  when try add 2nd node however, falls apart.  i'm unable add second node cluster.  we've rebuilt box more once , hasn't helped.  each node has 2 nics (one network, 1 storage) , disabled iscsi network (relative failover cluster).  the 2nd node had file server role installed no problem.  but getting added cluster has failed.

looking insight config, clear docs, etc.

tia

we rebuilt network on second node , things appear working - must have been kind of network issue

 

thanks
