This error was reported when I tried to add a cluster shared volume disk to the Failover Cluster Manager of Windows 2012.

[Window title]
Error

[Main instruction]
The Operation has failed

[Content]
The disk cannot be added to cluster shared volumes because it does not have any suitable partitions.

[^] Hide details [OK]

[Expanded information]
Error code: 0x8007174c

The disk is not configured in a way to be used with CSV. CSV disks must have at least one partition that is formatted with NTFS

After trying and troubleshooting, we found that to avoid this error, we should use the following steps to fix it:

1. Remove the disk from cluster manager.

2. Add a volume.

3. Be sure to select "Do not assign a drive letter or driver path.

4. Format NTFS.

5. Re-Add the disk to the cluster and then "add to cluster shared volumes ".

6. Successful!
