Error: Cannot use file for clustered server

Recently I was trying to restore 100 databases into a newly provisioned shared clustered disks and ran into this error message using Commvault: [code language=”SQL”] ERROR CODE: Query Result [Cannot use file ‘G:\Data\database1.mdf’ for clustered server. Only formatted files on which the cluster resource of the server has a dependency can be used. Either the disk resource containing the file is not present in the cluster group or the cluster resource of the Sql Server does not have a dependency on it.

Add new disk resource to existing cluster group‏
