Overall Result
Testing has completed for the tests you selected. One or more tests indicate that the configuration is not suitable for clustering. A cluster solution is supported by Microsoft only if you run all cluster validation tests, and all tests succeed (with or without warnings).
List Disks
Description: List all disks visible to one or more nodes. If a subset of disks is specified for validation, list only disks in the subset.
