File Recovery From Windows 2003 Quorum Disk
Saturday, April 3, 2010

In Microsoft Windows 2003 Server MSCS (Microsoft Cluster Service) environment, MSCS service attempts to retrieve the quorum disk when MSCS folder in quorum disk can not be accessed or it doesn't exist. In such case, the quorum disk might be corrupted after MSCS attempts to retrieve the it. In such situations, you can not access files from your Windows 2003 hard drive and come across critical file loss situations. In order to recover lost files at this point, file recovery software solutions are required.

In a practical scenario, when you try to access the disk, you might come across the below given error message:

"Error 0x800713de: the quorum disk could not be located by the cluster service"

You could check whether the disk is influenced with this issue by applying Chkdsk in read only mode. You could apply Chkdsk in read only mode when you don't use /x or /f options. For instance, you could type "chkdsk <DRIVE letter>" at command prompt and then hit Enter. If your hard drive is affected by this issue, you can apply Chkdsk in read only mode, you might encounter the below given error message:

"The type of the file system is NTFS.
The volume is in use by another process.
Chkdsk might report errors when no corruption is present.
Volume label is Volume.
WARNING! F parameter not specified. Running CHKDSK in read-only mode.
CHKDSK is verifying files (stage 1 of 3)... Deleting corrupt attribute record (112, "") from file record segment 3.
File verification completed. Errors found.
CHKDSK cannot continue in read-only mode."

When this issue takes place, don't run Chkdsk with /x or /f option on quorum. Doing so might damage the disk data structure and cause file loss.
