This issue has been solved. See solution.

Hi,

Can anyone please share your knowledge here in the forum regarding the best practice of ANtivirus deployment in Clustered server for SQL Server on VMware VM?

I have just upgraded to SEP v 11.0.7 but somehow the Cluster has always got an issue with "split Brain" syndrome due to the Quorum disk issue.

Cheers !

Yes, you can. It will allow for easier administration if you need to make policy changes for only these machines.
