File Share Parameters File share resources can be normal shares, DFS roots, or Dynamic Shares. You configure file share permissions at the same time and on the same tab.

Every resource has a resource name, possible owners, and dependencies, but depending on the resource type, you will need to configure a different set of parameters. File share parameters on a virtual server have the same configurations as a file share on a physical server, with the exception of the settings for the Advanced File Share Properties dialog box.

The table below shows the specific File Share Parameter options. Description Share name Unique name for the share. Path Path for the shared folder, on a shared drive. The folder on the shared drive must already exist. Comment Description for the share (optional). User Limit Maximum number of concurrent users. Permissions Configuration of the file share permissions. Advanced Specify whether subdirectories of the shared folder should be available through the single share resource.

Permissions for the File Share Use Cluster Administrator and Microsoft Windows 2000 security to limit access to files and folders that reside on drives on the cluster storage device. When setting access permission for file shares, it is recommended that you base file share permissions on domain local groups, not on local user or local group accounts. On member servers, local users and local groups have a security context only on the local computer. The security context of these accounts and groups is meaningless when failed from one node to another. For this reason, you cannot give local users or local groups permissions to administer the cluster. The single exception to this rule is the local Administrator group. The local Administrator group is not a problem on domain controllers because the local accounts and groups have security context on all domain controllers in the domain. It is recommended that you also set NTFS permissions through domain local groups. Important: If you change file share permissions by using Windows Explorer or My Computer instead of using Permissions on the Parameters tab in Cluster Administrator, the permissions are lost when the resource is taken offline.

Advanced File Share Properties A normal file share is the default option. If you want to share subdirectories or create a DFS root, click the Advanced button. There are three options: Normal Share, Dfs root, and Share subdirectories (dynamic shares).

DFS Root A DFS root is the highest level of a DFS topology, and is the starting point for the hierarchy of shared folders. A domain DFS root can have replicas for fault tolerance, but a stand-alone DFS root is lost if the server hosting the DFS root goes offline. Cluster service can provide a fault tolerant DFS root by placing the DFS root on a virtual server. The DFS root that Cluster service configures is a stand-alone DFS root, not a domain DFS root. The DFS root that uses Active Directory™ directory service supports automatic file replication. Stand-alone DFS root configurations are not automatically replicated outside of the server cluster. The server cluster provides failover of the DFS root for availability rather than relying on replicas of the DFS topology. Caution: If there is an existing DFS root that you have configured on any node in the server cluster, you must either remove it or migrate it to the cluster.

Share Subdirectories (Dynamic Shares) Every cluster resource has a performance impact; Cluster service must periodically poll all of the resources to determine if they have failed. Because of this poll, you may notice that your cluster’s performance decreases as you increase the number of resources that it manages. The worst-case scenario is that a very busy cluster may drop connections because of the amount of time that is being used to manage a high volume of cluster resources. Large quantities of file share resources also increase the length of the failover time.

The optimal way to use a server cluster for home folders is to use the Share subdirectories (dynamic shares) feature. Cluster service allows you to configure multiple shares as a single resource. The resource parameters permit you to share subdirectories separately from the parent. Furthermore, it is possible to configure the resource so that you create the subdirectory shares as hidden shares that do not appear in browse lists. This feature prevents the need to use multiple file share resources to create large numbers of shares, which in turn dramatically reduces overhead and simplifies manageability of large numbers of shares.
