Error 5184: Cannot use file 'xxxxx' for clustered server


This error occurs when the disk that you're trying to restore/attach the database file to does not have a dependency on the SQL Server resource in the cluster. It isn't enough to have the resource in the same cluster group.

Resolution:
Take the cluster group offline, add the disk dependency to the SQL Server resource, then bring the cluster group back online.
