Hi Guys,
We've a Microsoft Cluster 2003 with two nodes which has a messed up configuration, it's a test system installed by a consultant some time ago and this was never an issue until now.
The nodes have they're binaries installed on the D:\ disk which is local on each node and the sapmnt dir is installed on a shared disk. The issue is with node 1, it's $(DIR_INSTANCE) resolves to the shared disk F:\ instead of D:\ - so when the cluster fails over to node two, it takes ownership of F:\ and node 1 crashes because it can't access F:\. $(DIR_INSTANCE) should resolve to D:\usr\sap\SID.... as it does on our production system.
So basically I've looked at the registry and the environment variables and I can't see anything defining $(DIR_INSTANCE), so I can't manage to edit it to the correct location....?
The system is NW CE 711 AS JAVA - is there somewhere I have forgotten to check? I thought I could impose the correct parameters in the config tool in the "instance profile" area to use custom values - but on restart these get over written.
Regards,
Cillian
