I have just configured SCV2020 Dell Storage to be used with a Cluster of Hyper V servers. Everything is working fine. I have a more of a design question.
Should I create one large volume on the dell storage let's say 2TB and then map it on both servers and create all VMs not this volume?
OR
Should I create a separate volume for each VM?
In any case I still have to add the disk to server and give it a drive letter etc. What's the best way to do this?

You'll usually create a single Volume/LUN/Virtual Disk on your storage array and create a single Cluster Shared Volume from that on your Hyper-V hosts. You'll then provision your VM's virtual hard drives out of that single CSV rather than provisioning individual Volumes/LUNs/Virtual Disks on your storage array for individual VM's.
As for how to do it, how are you connecting the Hyper-V hosts to the storage? FC, iSCSI, et.?
