PS: Sorry, forgot to attach the KB article http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1004617
i got some document which says vmware does not support 64 bit windows clustering ,
According to the documentation I attached to my previous post the following Windows versions are supported:
Windows Server 2003 SP2 (32 bit), Windows Server 2003 (64 bit) SP2, or Windows Server 2008 R2.

I have done the below
Add Hard Disks to the First Node for Clusters on One Physical Host
In the vSphere Client inventory, select the newly created virtual machine and select Edit Settings.
The Virtual Machine Properties dialog box appears.
2 Click Add, select Hard Disk, and click Next.
3 Select Create a new virtual disk and click Next.
4 Select the disk size.
5 Under Disk Provisioning, select Support clustering features such as Fault Tolerance.
You can also use a mapped SAN LUN set to virtual compatibility mode.
6 Click Next.
7 From the Virtual Device Node drop-down menu, select a new SCSI controller (for example, SCSI (1:0)).
NOTE You must select a new virtual device node. You cannot use SCSI 0.
8 Click Next, and click Finish.
The wizard creates a new hard disk and a new SCSI controller.
The wizard created the hard disk , but no new scsi controller , anything missing ?
