| Nov 28, 2019 at 22:33 | comment | added | HandyD | Pretty much. The disk witness doesn't use a log file, it stores the witness log information in the cluster configuration database, but for all intents and purposes, they behave the same. | |

So the disk witness and file share witness pretty much act the same way by communicating through a file or log file but disk witness has an extra thing where it keeps a copy of the cluster configuration database on the disk. Is that correct? | |
