Specified path was invalid (During Cluster creation for File Witness server)

Specified path was invalid (During Cluster creation for File Witness server)


Hey Guys, 
I just want to explain how small things can impact you while working on New cluster creation.
recently we were working on cluster creation and file witness share was not accepted by Cluster, After 
troubleshoot we come to know there were 2 issues one with Share permission and other is Security permission.

In our case we were using comman id for creating cluster and Id was having permission to login to server. 
but the same id was not part of administrator group on server where file witness share was created and in share permission also it was not showing listed hence cluster was not accepting file Path.

Please make sure id under which you are ruing cluster services should be added in the security permission along with computer account which get created as cluster name.

on a side note will like to inform you, You should give cluster name (computer account) which get created in AD should be part of group which has permission to do domain join (This will allow Cluster account to create and register AG in active directory).
