Morning All,
I have a 3 node cluster, with 2x nodes in data centre A and 1 node in Data Centre B.
Even though we have an odd number of nodes for Quorum, would it make sense to add a third location (we already own a 3rd datacentre (C) ) fileshare witness with an extra number of votes?
I reason this as a third location being able to monitor the other two locations (A and B) would be er.. better? And if so, would giving that 3rd location 2 votes be the right way to maintain an odd number of votes? Or would you give another node an extra vote instead?
Cheers
Alex

if doing this you'll need to remove a vot from a node, if its windows 2012 or above it will balance the votes for you when you add the FSW.
As you're already using Majority Node Set just leave it alone
