Adding A Logical Disk To Your Cluster Configuration
Because dynamic disks are not supported in Windows Clustering, adding a disk to the configuration at some point after the initial configuration will incur some downtime. Consult the Knowledge Base article "175278 – How to Install Additional Drives on the Shared SCSI Bus" for instructions on adding drives to your cluster configuration. It can be found at http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;175278&sd=tech
Once the drive is recognized at the Windows Clustering level, take the SQL Server cluster resource offline, and add the drive as a dependency in Cluster Administrator. After bringing the SQL Server resource online, the SQL Server virtual server will now be able to use this new drive.
HTH,
