What is it that you are trying to do? If you use internal storage on each Hyper-V host you can do that, but you can't cluster Hyper-V using internal storage. Hyper-v does not support NAS for storing VMs, but you can probably use it for backup.

External storage for Hyper-V needs to be iSCSI, eSATA, or fibre channel. Only NAS boxes that can also do iSCSI or FC are compatable.
hello,
could you please provide me a module from hp that can comptable with my recuirement ?
thanks.
