3.
Verify that some of the resources and groups are owned by the server
you will be powering off, so that a failure event will result in failover of
resources and/or groups. Make sure all predefined resources and groups
are online.
4.
Power off one of the cluster nodes.
Within several seconds, Microsoft Cluster Administrator will bring
online all of the predefined resources and groups that were previously
owned by the powered-off server. If, after a minute, nothing appears to
have happened, refresh the screen by selecting Refresh (
F5
).
If failover is not working correctly, see the installation troubleshooting
tips in Chapter 6.
Verifying Network Client Failover
After you have verified that each server is correctly running as a cluster node,
the next step is to verify that network clients can interact with the cluster.
The following steps will lead you through this validation procedure:
1.
Ensure both cluster nodes are running, and verify, by means of
Microsoft Cluster Administrator, that all groups and resources are
online.
For each hard disk in the shared storage, MSCS automatically creates a
cluster group that consists of a single resource, the disk drive.
2.
Add an existing IP address as another resource to one of these groups
using Microsoft Cluster Administrator. Do NOT use the Cluster Group.
Save the changes and return to the main Cluster Administrator screen.
3.
Open a DOS window on a network client machine.
