Cluster Server Drive Letters Do Not Update Using Disk Administrator

• Microsoft Windows NT Server version 4.0
• Microsoft Windows NT Server, Enterprise Edition version 4.0
• Microsoft Cluster Server
• Microsoft Windows NT Server version 4.0, Terminal Server Edition

SYMPTOMS

When using Disk Administrator to add or modify drive letters on a Cluster Server disk that has multiple partitions, changes committed to the system are not properly represented when cycling the disk from offline to online status. Restarting the server does not necessarily correct the issue and drive letters that have been used and then deleted are no longer available for assignment.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Windows NT 4.0 or Windows NT Server 4.0, Terminal Server Edition. For additional information, please see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
