Hey there,
I always thought a Hyper-V Failover-Cluster guarantees a continuous availability of all virtual machines. So when one cluster node goes down, all the machines that are on that failing node remain online and available.
Either I am missing something, of I didn't configure it correctly ... but when I disconnect the node from the network (simulating a hardware failure) nothing happens, besides the node failing in the cluster manager.
I was expecting that the remaining node takes over all the VMs with a one or two second delay, keeping the current state of the VM. In other words, I was expecting that a Hyper-V Failover Cluster appears exactly as a singular Hyper-V Server unless both nodes go down (on a 2-node cluster, that is).
Did I miss something, or did I forget to configure something? Did I misunderstand what a Hyper-V Failover-Cluster does?
