Windows Server Failover Clustering : Configure Cluster2024/12/23 |
Configure Windows Server Failover Clustering (WSFC).
This example is based on the environment like follows. | +----------------------+ | +----------------------+ | [ AD DS ] |10.0.0.100 | 10.0.0.110| [ iSCSI Target ] | | fd3s.srv.world +-----------+-----------+ tgt01.srv.world | | | | | | +----------------------+ | +----------------------+ | +----------------------+ | +----------------------+ | [ Cluster Node#1 ] |10.0.0.101 | 10.0.0.102| [ Cluster Node#2 ] | | rx-7.srv.world +-----------+-----------+ rx-8.srv.world | | | | | +----------------------+ +----------------------+ |
On CUI Configuration, run PowerShell and Set like follows. |
|
[1] | Logon to a Node that has cluster administration tools and Test to create cluster to verify each Nodes settings. If some errors are shown, improve your System and retry Test Job. For [WARNING] items, you should care them but they are not essential requisites, so if [ClusterConditionallyApproved] is shown, it's possible to create a Cluster. |
