I have a SQL Server Cluster Availability Group, and the cluster is configured to use a file witness.

recently I expand the cluster to my DR site and I get a subscription from Azure to host the witnesssite

I want to change the cluster witness from a local file witness to use the cloud witness, but the problem is the option is disabled.

How can I change the Witness, and why its disabled.

Inexplainable 2008 Failover Cluster Issues

October 14, 2009, 1:53 am

Hi,

We have a 2008 Failover Node & Disk Majority SQL 2005 cluster.

There are 2 nodes in the cluster with 2008 Ent 64-bit SP2 installed.

At around 00:20 each morning we see various FailoverClustering errors in the event logs on both servers.

EventID: 1135, 1069, 1177

Before the FailoverClustering events are seen, 2 informational events appear regarding the 'Microsoft Failover Clustering Virtual Adapater'

EventID: 4201 'The system detected that network adapter Local Area Connection* 9 was connected to the network, and has initiated normal operation.'

This is causing the resources to failover to the secondary node.

I have run the Cluster Validation Wizard and everything passes. I have disabled the Windows Firewall service on both nodes.

We are presenting the storage via NetApp and the nodes have 3 nics installed

NIC1 - Server Vlan - Speed/Duplex Set to 1000Mb Full
NIC2 - Storage Vlan - Speed/Duplex Set to 1000Mb Full
NIC3 - Heartbeat - Speed/Duplex Set to 100Mb Full

Please can anyone help me troubleshoot these issues ?

Thanks

Removing and Adding Hyper-V node to cluster

Guys,

have unique requirement of making few hyper-v hosts as a cold standaby host which can be bring back to life if needed such as another node has died.

How practical is to remove a node from cluster, shut it down, when needed start the hosts, readd to domain and add back to cluster? 

Or just shut it down and start every 30 days to keep it intact in the domain?

Have 5 nodes cluster right now and have enough resource to run all the workload even if one of the node is down (apart from the one I want to keep as cold standby)

Cluster resource 'dc1bsimsmq' of type 'Network Name' in clustered role 'dc1bsimsmq' failed.

Based on the failure policies for the resource and role, the cluster service may try to bring the resource online on this node or move the group to another node of the cluster and then restart it.  Check the resource and group state using Failover Cluster Manager or the Get-ClusterResource Windows PowerShell cmdlet.

Cluster network name resource 'dc1bsimsmq' failed to create its associated computer object in domain 'gst.gov.in' during: Resource online.

The text for the associated error code is: Access is denied.


Please work with your domain administrator to ensure that:
- The cluster identity 'DC1BSIAPP$' has Create Computer Objects permissions. By default all computer objects are created in the same container as the cluster identity 'DC1BSIAPP$'.
- The quota for computer objects has not been reached.
- If there is an existing computer object, verify the Cluster Identity 'DC1BSIAPP$' has 'Full Control' permission to that computer object using the Active Directory Users and Computers tool.

Migrating HyperV 2012 R2 Cluster to a new domain

Hello everyone,

I need to join a 3 nodes HyperV 2012 R2 cluster to a new domain. I have searched doc in the MS knowledge base but I didn't find anything. I would like to understand if there's a way to join the cluster to a new (trusted) AD domain without destroying and recreating the cluster. Apparently, there's no official MS article on that

Regards,

Hal

Does anyone know if this is possible?

I can securely store the credentials by encrypting them with a certificate (in the machine store) and decrypting them inside a script running as system but I cannot successfully start another process using those credentials when it is inside a clustered scheduled task.

If anyone has pulled this off I would appreciate some pointers.

S2D Cluster without RDMA - Network design questions

October 19, 2018, 7:18 am

Hi all S2D-wizards!

Let me describe what I'm trying to achieve before asking my actual questions:
4-Node Hyperconverged Hyper-V S2D Cluster based on Server 2019 Datacenter.
(Yes, I'm aware of the blocking right now when creating S2D-cluster on 2019 GA but I guess that's another discussion)
(And yes again, I've already purchased the 2019 Datacenter-licenses for this purpose...)

In each node:

  • 2x10G Mellanox Connect X3 SFP+
  • 4x10G Intel X710 SFP+
  • 2xNon-RDMA 10G Switches dedicated for storage network.
    Switches will have a 40GB Trunk between.
    Switches can do virtual stacking.
  • 2x10G Switches for VM-traffic and node-management.
    Non-RDMA - Non-stackable. Pretty basic 10G switches

My idea, which at least looks good on paper in my mind, is to create a simple team for failover on the Mellanox-ports for VM-traffic and node-management.
What would be the most suitable TEAM-type for this? SET or plain old switch independent LBFO?

I've spent the last couple of days trying to figure out how to design/create the storage-network.
There's plenty of guides available on how to configure RDMA-enabled networks but not that much for non-RDMA.
(Reason for not using RoCE is that switches are not compatible and reason for not using iWarp is NIC's are not compatible.)

Most documentation refers to creating a SET-team for storage-network and putting two different network-adapters for SMB behind the SET-team.
Why two nets for the SMB traffic? (SMB Direct?)
Does using a SET-team even make any sense when not utilizing RDMA anyway?

Is there any point in having a separate Live Migration network, if so would you put it on the management-switches or the storage-switches?

Then we the topic of bandwidth-aggregation and fail-over.
When deciding on this design, I was hoping to be able to aggregate the 4-port Intel NIC (used for S2D-cluster storage) over the stacked switches, thus creating an aggregated link of 40Gbps.
I realize this may be a configuration nightmare on the server-side so I'm ready to accept that I may have to ditch the stacking.. However i should be able to achieve 20Gbps? All four NICS connected in an active-passive fashion.
Am I dreaming here or do you agree this SHOULD be possible? If so, what kind of teaming would you recommend? Will S2D traffic be dynamically balanced across all physical nics?

Can anyone please help shed some light over my S2D-project?
Any input is greatly appreciated!

Best regards _Hallberg!

Windows NLB - Cluster IP:PORT is not accessible from converged node

October 30, 2018, 4:36 am

Hi All,

I would like to ask you whether any one know or can confirm that the following behaviour is right according to the NLB architecture:

I have deployed Windows NLB Cluster with two nodes. The Windows NLB is configured as a multicast cluster and the cluster IP:PORT is fully accessible from same VLAN and also from other VLANs, however problem is that from the node which is currently converged, ie. the cluster ip:port is not active on the server/node, the cluster ip:port is not accessible at all - when I try to run telnet on cluster IP:PORT, connection is immediately refused.

Is this known limitation/function of NLB cluster or something is wrong?

Really appreciate your answers or help

Regards,

Can't create a Client Access Point in Failover Cluster Server 2016

Hi all,

I created a cluster and added the file server role as the clustered role.  All the cluster related objects landed in the "Computers" OU (default location for new AD computer objects).  I didn't want them to stay here so created a new OU in which I placed all my cluster objects.  

I then visited the cluster to create my first Client Access Point, however it fails with error 800703eb.  I know this is related to the permissions on the OU, however, I am unsure as to what they should be.  (Finding it difficult to locate information on this.)

Can anyone help?

Many thanks.

Hello,

How are you? I have a cluster of Hyper V 2016 Server. Actually I have two nodes (HP BL460c gen 8).

I presented to them two volumes(HP EVA 4400). Then I converted to CSV

Yesterday both volumes were visible from HyperV Servers but not today:

Yesterday:

HyperV_1 can see both volumes

HyperV_2 can see both volumes

Today:

HyperV_1 can see only volume_2

HyperV_2 can see only volume_1

If I "list disk" from diskpart I dont see both volumes. But if I go to Disk Manager I see as "Unknown" and "Reserved"

How Is possible? Driver Issue? The volumes are presented correctly from storage

Any idea?

Thanks in advance

Hello,

I built a cluster and trying to add a second node.  Both servers are on two different subnets, they reached each other properly.

When I try to add the second server as a node, it times out, and in Windows logs, there is an event 1070 which shows "The node failed to join failover cluster 'DAG-Tech' due to error code '1629'."

There is another event 7024, with this description "

The Cluster Service service terminated with the following service-specific error: 
Data supplied is of wrong type."

The "Data of wrong type" corresponds to the meaning of the error code 1629.

How to resolve?  What data is wrong?

Thanks, Dominic
