We are having troubles trying to add a node to a cluster where there is an AlwaysOn Availability Group role, all systems are using Windows Server 2012. This node was previously working without problems, but was evicted during an operation, and we are trying again to add this node to the claster.
The cluster is working OK, because we have other avaibility groups working in the same cluster. Both cluster and node are in the same network and domain.
The cluster validation was completed without errors. This is the report generated after the unsuccessfull adding process:
Node: | VM_name.domain | |
Started | 24/07/2013 15:35:08 | |
Completed | 24/07/2013 15:41:30 |
