File Share Witness Location

  • Hi,
    Is there a way to get the File Share Witness physical location using TSQL? I've looked through a number of DMV's and system tables doesn't seem that information or any information relating to FSW is stored in SQL apart from what is in sys.dm_hadr_cluster_members.

    Thanks to all who reply

  • Since the Quorum and FSW is a Windows Cluster Component, your best bet is PowerShell:

    get-clusterresource -cluster sqlcluster | where-object {$_.ResourceType -like “File Share Witness”} | get-clusterparameter

    To run it from t-sql, you could use xp_cmdshell ( I know this might be frowned upon)
