Issue:-

While Installing SQl Server in Failover Cluster Environment, gets below error:-

The specified disk resource 'Cluster Disk X' cannot be used as a failover cluster disk.  Reason: The disk resource 'Cluster Disk X' is already in use by resource 'New Distributed Transaction Coordinator (1)'. To use a disk in a new SQL Server failover cluster instance, the disk must not have any dependencies that reference it.


Problem:-

Installation of SQL Server will gets fail. you will not find  any resource  with name "'New Distributed Transaction Coordinator (1)"  using  graphical mode of cluadmin.msc

so what you will do? How we will resolve this Error?

if you will search this in registry, with string "New Distributed Transaction Coordinator (1)", chances are  you will find this in "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Cluster\Resources"

Do not delete this key from here.

Resolution:-

 go to command prompt

run 
C:\> Cluster resource

  

You will get a resource with name "New Distributed Transaction Coorinator (1) as a resource

then
Run this command..

C:\>Cluster resource "New Distributed Transaction Coordinator (1)" /delete

After execution of this command, This offline resource will get deleted.

Now you can install SQL Server, SQL Server in cluster will get install successfully.


Thanks for reading..
