Adding drive dependencies to WIN2k/SQL2k cluster resource

I need to add two additional SAN attached volumes to be dependencies
for my SQL Server Cluster resource. Do I have to restart the cluster
service for this to take affect? Is there another way for the cluster
resource to re initialize it's dependencies without restarting?
If you want to create databases on these drives, you need to add them to the
SQL Server resource dependency list. To do that, you don't need to restart
the cluster service. But you do need to take the SQL Server resource offline,
add the drives as the dependencies, and then bring the SQL Server resource
online.
