SnapDrive Windows 2008 Cluster Access Denied

After installing snapdrive on a cluster member, I got access denied when trying to add a disk. Apparently you have to install SnapDrive on both servers before proceeding even though it is a CCR cluster

That's because SnapDrive on one box needs to communicate with SnapDrive on the other box to complete the clustering part.

The same thing applies even if NetApp is not the storage on the other node. You still need to install SnapDrive (even though it does nothing!) on that non NetApp node.
