I have a 2 node cluster that is producing the following 1196 errors in the event log of each node.
Microsoft-Windows-FailoverClustering:
-Cluster network name resource 'CAUMADCLGE54RB8' failed registration of one or more associated DNS name(s) for the following reason: DNS server failure.
-Cluster network name resource 'Cluster Name' failed registration of one or more associated DNS name(s) for the following reason: DNS server failure
-Cluster network name resource 'CAUMADCLGE54RB8' encountered an error enabling the network name on this node. The reason for the failure was: 'Unable to obtain a logon token'.
This network name is involved with the cluster and is an object in ADUC though it is not in DNS so I'm not really sure what type of object it is. However, it is NOT the cluster name. I can RDP to the cluster name and can ping it, but I cannot RDP to this name nor can I ping it.
But I am wondering if these errors are not true errors. The reason I because the secondary DNS IP in the main NIC on each node is set to Google's public DNS server IP of 8.8.8.8. Of course the cluster nodes can't register with it nor can the cluster, so I'm wondering if that is the source of the 1196 errors. If so, then I can ignore them. If however, they are being generated in relation to the primary DNS IP which is one of the local DNS servers, then it needs to be fixed and I need help with figuring out how to fix it.
