I don’t know if there is any similar tools available for Linux or not…

But still u can create your own lab using mixed environment..

As i already told, i never tested this with windows 2008, coz i am having a system in my home have 1 GB of ram, so i can’t run 2 Win 2008 cluster on virtual PC, but still i will suggest, before u do anything on your system, try it on MS Virtual Lab on following location, it will always help to to solve problem yourself(at least in my case).

TechNet Virtual Lab: Windows Server 2008 Enterprise Failover Clustering Lab

Thanks for the really useful info on configuring StarWind and StarPort. I’m currently trying to configure a Windows 2008 cluster on VM Workstation 6.5, and have followed all the guidelines above to create the shared storage target and initiators using StarWind/StarPort, but when I come to running the cluster validation tool, it reports that there are no eligible storage disks available for use by the cluster. The report gives the following characteristics for each disk: “Disk bus type does not support clustering Disk partition style is MBR. Disk partition type is BASIC.” The bus type is ‘SCSI’, so I guess I want this to be ‘iSCSI’ or SAS, but how to I fix this?

Has anyone else had the same issue? If so could you offer any help to fix this?

Many thanks
Andy
