Windows 2008 cluster issue

Sponsored Links

I am trying to set up windows 2008 2-node cluster. The cluster validation
test went successful. But when I try to create the cluster by add one of the
node, it gave me an error saying "computer is joined to a cluster". Anyone
has this problem and know how to solve this issue. Thanks,

Have you tried the "Manage Cluster" link to see what is returned?

When I tried "manage cluster", it asked me "Select a cluster to manage" .
Since I have not create one yet, I just use the server name, it returned -
the action "manage Custer" did not complete. The cluster database on
"Server Name" is corrupted or missing.

Is cluster service present in services.msc?

I remove the failover clustering feature from both servers, reboot and
reinstalled failover clustering feature. Now everything seems to work now. I
can create the cluster now. Thanks for all the help.

Ran into this same issue. Solution was to make sure that the "Cluster" service was set to "Disabled" and not running within the MS Services Console. No removing or adding software or server restarts were necessary for me on this one. (thankfully :-)
