How do you present none shared storage to a stretch cluster for use in storage replication

hi, i trying in server 2016 rtm. i carrying out testing 2 node cluster , have 2 separate iscsi target servers. if present iscsi luns each server only, clustering not recognize disks clustering how add them? if present iscsi luns both servers can add disk in , remove mapping necessary once disks in cluster. this did work on tp5 not on rtm? thanks. we changed behavior in win2016 disk clustered automatically, needs visible 2 or more nodes. as you've found out, if have disks presented single node need add disks running powershell syntax, cluster disks... if visible 1 node (effectively win2012 r2 behavior) get-clusteravailabledisk -all | add-clusterdisk what trying 2-node stretch cluster storage replica absolutely supported... setup flow little different have run powershell cmdlet, that's all. thanks! elden Windows Server  >

Paste Special - What is MERGE formatting

merge formatting sounds "keep text only"  in other words, text being pasted take on attributes of paragraph of destination. can tell me "merge formatting"   means , does?   (see arrow diagram icon looks like.) "merge formatting" means formatting data pasted , not actual text.  example, let's say you have text says, "word1" , says "word2."  "word1" in arial font no bold or underline.  "word2" in times new roman bold , underlines.  now, copy operation on "word2."  merge formatting copied "word2" "word1" impart bold , underline attributes resulting in "word1" being in arial font bold , underline.

Robocopy on Windows Server 2008 SP2 does not copy folder permissions

when using robocopy copy folders , files 1 local hard disk another, using /copyall /e /tee options, target folder not contain source folder's acl. i've tried other options such as: /copy:datsou or /secfix, made no difference. test scenario: create folder on c:, test1. add test1's permissions local group read, e.g. backup operators. acl list should have permissions inherited c:\ plus backup operators that's not inherited. use robocopy copy test1 c:\test2, check acl on test2. backup operators missing. it looks robocopy cannot override target folder's permissions inheritance, folder  retains parent folder's acl. i've disabled user access control in troubleshooting problem. to add issue, there's workaround can used ensure target folder's acl same source folder's acl. it's 2 step process. 1) use xcopy source_folder target_folder /i /e /x /t  -  lays down directory structure including acls 2) use robocopy source_folder target_folder /copyall
