I. Preparing to install a failover cluster
Ensure that the nodes in the cluster are joined to the domain (in this case, 2 nodes)
Ensure that domain accounts are added to the native Administrators group

Create a folder on the domain control and share it (this folder is not recommended for domain control in a production environment) to ensure that the 2 node has access to the shared folder of the node (currently 2 nodes, mainly the general practice of meeting the cluster cardinality node deployment)
Here we create a folder when we enable the file share witness
15) Start the Configure Cluster Quorum wizard
16) Select the quorum witness
17) Select Profile Share Witness
18) Configure shared file witness path
19) Create a shared folder and its permissions
