In later releases of Windows Server, CSV functionality is enhanced. For example, dependencies on Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) were removed. Support was added for the functional improvements in `chkdsk` for interoperability with antivirus and backup applications, and for integration with general storage features such as BitLocker-encrypted volumes and Storage Spaces. For an overview of CSV functionality that was introduced in Windows Server 2012, see [What's New in Failover Clustering in Windows Server 2012](/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-server-2012-r2-and-2012/dn265972(v%3dws.11)).
