I'm trying to create a brand new two node Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise 64bit cluster. When I try with the GUI I get the following:
An error occurred while creating the cluster.
An error occurred creating cluster 'printcluster'.
This operation returned because the timeout period expired
When I try via command prompt using the following command:
cluster /cluster:PrintServices /create /nodes:"node1 node2" /ipaddr:10.9.11.194/255.255.255.0
I get the following:
4% Initializing Cluster PrintServices.
9% Validating cluster state on node <node1>.
13% Searching the domain for computer object PrintServices
18% Creating a new computer object for PrintServices in the domain
22% Configuring computer object PrintServices as cluster name object
27% Validating installation of the Microsoft Failover Cluster Virtual Adapter on node <node1>.
31% Validating installation of the Cluster Disk Driver on node <node1>.
36% Configuring Cluster Service on node <node1>.
40% Validating installation of the Microsoft Failover Cluster Virtual Adapter on node <node2>.
45% Validating installation of the Cluster Disk Driver on node <node2>.
50% Configuring Cluster Service on node <node2>.
54% Starting Cluster Service on node <node1>.
54% Starting Cluster Service on node <node2>.
59% Forming cluster PrintServices.This phase has failed for Cluster object 'PrintServices' with an error status of 1460 (0x000005B4).
Cleaning up <node1>.
Cleaning up <node2>.
Cleaning up PrintServices.
When I run a Cluster validation, I get 100% Green, no errors.
My disks are SAN Attached.
I have other Windows 2008 non-R2 clusters that never had this problem... Any ideas?
