Can I Attach a Disk to Multiple Servers?

  • A non-shared disk can only be attached to one server.
  • A shared disk can be attached to up to 16 servers. For more information about shared disks, see Managing Shared EVS Disks.
    • Shared disks are a type of EVS disks that can be attached to multiple servers.
    • A shared file system or cluster management system must be set up before you can properly use a shared disk. If you simply attach a shared disk to multiple servers, data cannot be shared between those servers and may be overwritten.
