I have a IBM NAS based storage interfaced using iSCSI interface on my two node Hyper – V Cluster on Windows Server 2008 R2.
I am in process of setting up this cluseter. All tests have passed according to Validate Cluster report.
I can see Both the disks as online simultaneously on both nodes. However, as soon as I add the disk to the cluster usind "Disks -> Add Disk", it becomes available to only one host. The other hosts shows "This disk is offline because of policy set by administrator" in its Disk Management. I can alternate this situation by choosing "Disk->Make this resource available to Node2" , but then it becomes available to Node2 and the same message is shown Node 1 in Disk Management.
Is this correct ?
As per my understanding, I should be able to see both disks online even after adding it as clustered Disk. How will the both nodes operate their VM if disk is not make available to both the nodes.

Make sure you have Cluster Shared Volumes enabled. From this link:
