Re: Drive Letter Does not appear in Windows Explorer when Moving resources from one node to another

Do you have your dependencies setup properly? Your fileshare resource in
your cluster should be depending on a Network Name resource and a Physical
Disk resource in your cluster. If the fileshare is missing these
dependencies, I could see similar issues occurring. Check out the following
