Trying to add a second node to a cluster. Operating System is Windows 2003
Enterprise Edition Service Pack 2. Using the wizard to add a node.
Error occurs on Checking for existing cluster
The NetBIOS name resolves to the proper IP address
The server requests a connection to the cluster in the domain
Error: Could not contact the cluster
Firewall is off
Check your network bindings, the public should be on top.
Check DNS and your settings for it. Is the cluster registered in DNS?
Cheers,
