Hi All,

This is a basic question, i always thought it's a one, but only today, i encountered a situation where i was unable to figure out the result.

Suppose that:

- We have a two nodes failover cluster (Windows Server 2012 Hyper-V cluster)

- VMs are spreaded between both nodes

- The quorum model is 'Disk and node majority' and the witness disk is owned now by the second node (Node 1), the CNO too

The situation:

- All the Node 1 NICs fail, the Node 1 is unable to communicate with any network (Storage is FC, not concerned by the network)

- Node 2 is normal

The question:

What is supposed to happen now ?

what is the process, who will get roles... ?

Thanks a lot !
