Event IDs 1069 and 1082 on MSDTC When Moving Cluster Group to Passive Node

13-11-2008

Yesterday I took the passive node in my Operations Manager RMS cluster down to remove a modem board and replace it with a new one. Ever since it came back up, I'm unable to fail over the Cluster Group (specifically the MSDTC resource) to the passive node. Whenever I try, I get these two errors.

Type: Error
Source: ClusSvc
Event ID: 1069
Event Time: 11/12/2008 10:26:04 AM
User: n/a
Computer: MTSCOMRMS01
Description:
Cluster resource 'MSDTC' in Resource Group 'Cluster Group' failed.

Type: Error
Source: ClusSvc
Event ID: 1082
Event Time: 11/12/2008 10:26:04 AM
User: n/a
Computer: MTSCOMRMS01
Description:
Cluster service failed to restore a registry key for resource MSDTC when it
was brought online. This error code was 3. Some changes may be lost.

A technet article advised me to use the ClusterRecover.exe utilty to recover the resource. I tried recovering just MSDTC. No joy, so I tried recovering all resources. Same result. A reboot of the passive node didn't help either.

One post I read said the user deleted the resource and recreated it, but I'd rather not go there unless I have to.

The active node is running just fine, but I need to be able to fail over to the passive node for maintenance. My local cluster expert has never run into this.

I'd appreciate any light that can be shed on this.

Cathy, I am sure you have heard this before but you should never add any
resources in the Cluster Group, always leave that alone. Have you
read/applied the KB articles KB301600 and KB817064, this may help you? I
would create another group just for this, use a small disk and go from there.

Hope that helps.

I have heard it before, but followed instructions from a consultant we hired
to help us implement SCOM. Oh, well. I'm off to rebuild MSDTC on my
cluster.

Thanks, Mark.

Well, rebuilding the DTC resource fixed it. Although, it took an hour or so
before the cluster would fail over cleanly after the new resource was
brought on line.

Thanks, again, for your help, Mark.
