MSMQ on Cluster 2008
Updated: 01 Mar 2012 | 7 comments
This issue has been solved. See solution.
Ok, according to the Install doc for EV 10, MSMQ is supposed to be on a cluster drive. Whenever I move MSMQ from local disk to the Cluster new drive, it fails.
I shutdown the MSMQ service.
I change the location for MSMQ
Start Service
and then it fails with all kinds of errors.
Any ideas?

Did you read the chapter
Did you read the chapter "Setting up the Enterprise Vault cluster services for a Windows Server failover cluster"
You need to use Cluster Manager to create the resource.
This should help: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc75508...

I created the MSMQ according
I created the MSMQ according to the doc, but on the D:\ drive. Once I tried to move it to my J:\ drive the whole thing when kaboom! The EV services fails and when i deleted the MSMQ resource and recreated it without any dependencies using Cluster Manager, it also fails. I uninstalled and reinstalled MSMQ but nothing works.
You have to use the Cluster
You have to use the Cluster Manager and you need the resources set up before you start. How were you able to install on D? The document I linked to has the following:
The Select Storage dialog box of the High Availability Wizard lists all clustered disk resources that are available for use on the cluster. If there are not any clustered disk resources listed then you must cancel out of the High Availability Wizard, create a clustered disk resource, and start the High Availability Wizard again.
You might want to just start over.

The doc does not have cluster
The doc does not have cluster creating MSMQ the way you defined. The MSMQ is part of the EVCluster resource group and not in a seperate group.

Also, I moved it to the D:\
Also, I moved it to the D:\ Drive by following the instructions below...

I just need to move it to the J:\ now, but the Admin Console, Directory Service are all in a failed state and I do not know why.
Ok, I think I figured it out.
Ok, I think I figured it out. MSMQ gets moved to the D:\ Drive, and the cluster uses the one on the J:\. If I try to move the MSMQ to the J:\ the cluster one fails.
