Three Node 2012 R2 HyperV cluster

Does anyone have any solid documentation on building a three node Hyper V cluster. I am moving from a two node and want to brush up a little on the process.

How are the two connecting to shared storage?

If via iSCSI then there would be some prep work to be done on the SAN to allow the new node to access shared LUNs prior to standing up the node.

Once the OS is up and configured run the Cluster Validation Wizard to make sure everything is okay.

Once the third node has joined the cluster run Cluster Aware Updating to bring it up to the same level as the others or to bring the others up to the same level as the new node.
