Cluster node has exceeded it's failover threshold

I am trying to create the Availability group listener for a 2 node cluster and cluster node events show failure due to "Cluster node has exceeded it's failover threshold" after I make one attempt that has failed for a variety of reasons, usually
permission. How do I set the threshold higher. All the information I get tells me to open processes that are not listed in the failover cluster manager. I haven't seen code that works in powershell. How can I set the failover threshold higher than one?

Hi,
Please try to install the recommended hotfixes and updates for Windows Server 2012-based failover cluster then monitor it again.
The related hotfixes.

Clustered role 'Cluster Group' has exceeded its failover threshold.

Hello.
I’m hoping to get some help with a cluster issue I’m having using Windows Storage Server 2012.
When the cluster is created my Cluster Core Resources are all happy and online.
I can more the Cluster Name using “move Core Cluster Resources” between the two nodes without any problems.
If I select ‘Simulate Failure’ on the IP Address resource, it works the first time
If I do it again shortly after it fails and I get an Event ID 1254, 1205 and 1069.
Event ID 1254
Clustered role 'Cluster Group' has exceeded its failover threshold.
It has exhausted the configured number of failover attempts within the failover period of time allotted to it and will be left in a failed state.
No additional attempts will be made to bring the role online or fail it over to another node in the cluster.
Please check the events associated with the failure. After the issues causing the failure are resolved the role can be brought online manually or the cluster may attempt to bring it online again after the restart delay period.
Event ID 1205
The Cluster service failed to bring clustered service or application 'Cluster Group' completely online or offline. One or more resources may be in a failed state. This may impact the availability of the clustered service or application.
Event ID 1069
Cluster resource 'Cluster IP Address' of type 'IP Address' in clustered role 'Cluster Group' failed.
Based on the failure policies for the resource and role, the cluster service may try to bring the resource online on this node or move the group to another node of the cluster and then restart it.
Check the resource and group state using Failover Cluster Manager or the Get-ClusterResource Windows PowerShell cmdlet.
Basically I’m trying to simulate a network failure to make sure the failover kicks in.
If I click on it and ‘Bring Online’ it comes up fine.
Where do I find this Threshold Policy and set it to initiate failover if the IP Address resources fails?
Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi,
The failover threshold is the number of times the group can fail over within the number of hours specified by the failover period. For example, if a group failover threshold is set to "5" and its failover period to "3," the clustering software stops attempting
to bring the group online and leaves the resources within the group in their current state. For example, if the IP Address resource is brought online but the Network Name resource fails, the group is left offline, but the IP Address resource is left online.
To configure thresholds for a resource:
Right-click the cluster resource and then select 'Propereties'
Click 'Advanced'
Select 'Do not restart' if the cluster service should not attempt to restart. Restart is the default
If 'Restart' is selected:
Affect the Group: uncheck to prevent a failure of the selected resource from causing the Server group to failover
Threshold: number of times the cluster service will attempt to restart the resource, and period is the amount of time in seconds between retries
Do not modify the 'LooksAlive' and 'IsAlive' settings
Unless necessary, do not alter the 'Pending Timeout'. This is the amount of time the resource is either in the online or pending or offline pending states before the the cluster service puts it in either offline or failed state

Cluster node networking

I have five node Windows Server 2008 R2 Hyper-V cluster. I put one node to Maintance mode and all VMs migrated to other hosts. I pulled out LAN cables form that node for testing (one out, waited a litte, put it back and pulled second and so on) and put
them right back on.
After that I had a lot of cluster errors and some VMs restarted.
I have put many times nodes on maintance mode and restarted / shut down them and never had any cluster problems. Why did I have now when I pulled out LAN cables?

Hi antesl,
The
failover behavior occurs because the cluster node has detect the cluster resource or node fail, such as network, storage, please refer the following related KB to confirm there have no potential single point failure configuration in your
cluster.

Do I use same oracle account on 2 cluster nodes cause problem?

Do I use same oracle account on 2 cluster nodes cause problem?
If I use same oracle account on 2 cluster nodes running 2 database, when failover happens, 2 database will be running on one node, does 2 oracle account make SHM ... memory conflict?
or do I have to use oracle01 account on node1, oracle02 account on node2? Can not use same name account?
Thanks.

I'm not 100% certain I understood the question, so I'll rephrase them and answer them.
Q. If I have the same Oracle account on each cluster node, e.g. uid=100 (oracle) gid=100 (oinstall), groups dba=200, can I run two databases, one on each cluster node without problems?
A. Yes. Having multiple DBs on one node is not a problem and doesn't cause shared memory problems. Obviously each database needs a different database name and thus different SID.
Q. Can I have two different Oracle accounts on each cluster node e.g. uid=100 (oraclea) gid=100 (oinstall), groups dba=200 and e.g. uid=300 (oracleb) gid=100 (oinstall), groups dba=200, and run two databases, one for each Oracle user?
A. Yes. The different Oracle user names would need to be associated with different Oracle installations, i.e. Oracle HOMEs. So you might have /oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1 (oraclea) and /oracle/oracle/product/11.0.1.0/db_1 (oracleb). The ORACLE_HOME is then used to determine the Oracle user name by checking the user of the Oracle binary in the ${ORACLE_HOME}/bin directory.

Reformatting a XServe G5 Cluster Node

I got my hands on a pair of G5 cluster nodes (the ones with a single drive bay and no optical) and I need to intall Mac OSX server on it. I tried removing the hard drive and using my macBook Pro to install to it, but I can't install mac Os X using the apple partition map, since I am working from and intel machine.
The G5 Cluster node has no video card so I can't even plug in my external reader and install it from there.
A Little Help Please? I am not a server guy, I'm a video guy but this happens to have fallen into my hands.
Thanks,
Charles

Hey Chuck,
You can install whatever partition map you need from the OS X Server installer. Before you begin the installation, go to "Utilities" and open Disk Utility.
Select the server's hard drive (be careful NOT to select your MacBook's drive, you don't want to erase that). Go to the "Partition" tab. Select "1 Partition" from the Volume Scheme popup. Then click on the "Options" button and and select "Apple Partition Map". Hit Apply. This should ensure that your XServe has the appropriate boot record.

Sun fire T1000 - VOLTAGE_SENSOR at MB/V_+3V3STBY has exceeded low warning t

Hi everyone,
I am newbie in Sun server and Solaris OS and I have trouble with our old T1000 server. When I power on server, I get message from ALOM console: SC Alert: VOLTAGE_SENSOR at MB/V_+3V3STBY has exceeded low soft shutdown threshold. I read this topic: Re: Error: VOLTAGE_SENSOR at MB/V_+3V3STBY has exceeded low warning threshold and I want to get my serial number of power supply to determine if this alert is factory fault. Can I get it with some command? I can't remove cover from server. Is this alert critical?
Also I have else one problem with T1000 if i want to start Solaris OS, "booting" stuck in loop:

Thank you for reply.As described in Re: Error: VOLTAGE_SENSOR at MB/V_+3V3STBY has exceeded low warning threshold:
... your power supply has failed. You need to replace it.
Since all T1000's are EOL, you will need to buy a new one unless you have a service contract that covers repair support on the entire chassis.
No, you cannot type a command to get serial numbers or part numbers of the power supply. Power supplies for such a system are "too stupid" to be able to answer a software inquiry probe. The PSU design is simple. It will work or it will not work.
If you think there is some sort of a recall on those power supplies, you will need to contact Technical Support directly. These forums are NOT Tech Support.
Opinion? There is no such recall, or if there ever was the time has long ago expired when someone could take advantage of it.
Your system doesn't boot because the PSU has failed. Gert the computer repaired. Go to eBay if you must, but you will need to buy replacement parts.

Unable to failover the services in active-active cluster node

Hi,
i am applying the sp2 patch for sql server 2008 r2 in active-active cluster, we have 3 services in the cluster , node 1 as 2 prefered owner and node 2 as 1 prefered owner, when i try to move the service from node 2 to node1 , i am getting the below errors
DCOM was unable to communicate with the computer XXXXXXXXX using any of the configured protocols.
The Kerberos client received a KRB_AP_ERR_MODIFIED error from the server XXXXXXXXX. The target name used was RPCSS/XXXXXX. This indicates that the target server failed to decrypt the ticket provided by the client. This can occur when the target server principal
name (SPN) is registered on an account other than the account the target service is using. Please ensure that the target SPN is registered on, and only registered on, the account used by the server. This error can also happen when the target service is using
a different password for the target service account than what the Kerberos Key Distribution Center (KDC) has for the target service account. Please ensure that the service on the server and the KDC are both updated to use the current password. If the server
name is not fully qualified, and the target domain (XXXXXX) is different from the client domain (XXXXXXX), check if there are identically named server accounts in these two domains, or use the fully-qualified name to identify the server.

Hyper-V Failover Cluster Node Corruption

Dear All,
Some of my nodes are showing abnormal behavior. They are restarting every now and then. I had updated the cluster nodes, but all updates were OS specific, there was nothing specific
with respect to hardware update.
I have analyzed crash dumps and find out that following is causing the crash:
page_fault_in_nonpaged_area
anyone has any idea about this?
Thanks in advance.

Hi ,
What is the OS of the cluster node ?
Did you try to remove the protection client for troubleshooing ?
If it is a 2008R2 cluster , please refer to this thread :

Contact Sun, and open a service case.
http://www.sun.com/secure/contact/
You have a hardware problem.
You have little or no voltage to your cpu modules (MB.P0 and MB.P1),
which could be power supply(s), or the PSU backplane, or the systemboard.
This has nothing to do with forgetting a password.
If you have service contract coverage, they'll just take care of you.
If there's no warranty or service contract, then expect to be charged for service.
An online user-to-user discussion forum cannot help that computer system.
Edit:
I take back some of this response.
If you're simply unable to power up the system,
then you may need to go back and consult your records for whatever the password might be.
Download the documentation for your model computer
and refresh your memory on the ALOM commands,
such as for how to power-on the chassis.

Number of times a particular vendor has exceeded the threshold limit

Hello,
We wish to find the number of times a particular vendor invoice has exceeded tolerance limit. Is there any table where this data gets updated or is their any standard report ?
Regards
Jayesh.

Firstly note that you cannot 'exceed' the tolerance. Based on the tolerance, you can goods receipt a higher quantity than specified in the PO.
Check vendor evaluation report ME6H, it provides scores to vendors on quantity reliability. You can use this if you have vendor evaluation configured for your Pur org.
If you are thinking for a Z logic, for each PO line item for the vendor, search in MSEG and total the quantity receipted. If this exceeds the quantity order in the PO item, increase your counter.

More than one inventory on cluster nodes?

Hello,
I have installed OracleDB EE 10gR2 in CFC, two nodes with RH and Serviceguard. DB 'binaries' are installed on local storage (both nodes) and datafiles on shared storage.
oraInventory is at local storage...
Now I have to deploy OracleAS Infrastructure in CFC, it will be active in the 'DB stand-by' node...
But I has to be done on shared storage...
Is it possible to have two oraInventory on each node? One at local storage and the other one at shared storage?
Thansk in advance

Following the Oracle Application Server Installation Guide for Linux x86 (10gR2)... if I want to install OracleAS Infrastructure in Cold Failover Cluster, it has to be installed only from one of the two nodes of the cluster... but it has to be installed onto shared storage.
When the OracleAS Infrastructure switched to the other node, it will mount the shared storage and execute the OracleAS Infrastructure...
So, I right now I have an oraInventory at local storage on both nodes (then one created when OracleDB was installed), I won't be able to set the oraInventory of OracleAS on the shared storage... unless I do what you advised me...
Will try it and tell you if it works.
Thanks for your help. Best regards.

Question about cluster node NodeWeight property

Hi,
I have a three nodes (A/B/C) windows 2008 r2 sp1 cluster testCluster, and installed KB2494036 for three nodes,suppose Node A is a active node.
I configured node C's NodeWeight property to 0, and node A and node B keep default (NodeWeight=1). I also added a shared disk Q for cluster quorum.
So i want to know if node C and Node B are down , is the windows cluster testCluster down as lost of quorum or keep up?
At the first i thought testCluster should keep up , because the cluster has 2 votes (node A and quorum), node B is down, node C doesn't join voting. But after testing, testCluster was down as lost of quorum.
So anybody konw the reason,thanks.

Hello mark.gao,
Let me see if I understand correctly your steps, so I can think that if you create your cluster with three nodes at the beginning your quorum model should be "Node Majority", then you have three votes one per each node.
Then was removed the vote for Node "C" and added a disk to be witness for cluster quorum, at this point we have two out of three votes from the original configuration on "Node Majority"
Question:
At some point you changed the quorum model to be "Node and Disk Majority"???
Maybe this is the issue, you are stuck on "Node Majority" and when "B" and "C" nodes are down we have only one vote from node "A" therefore there is no quorum to keep the service online.
On 2012 we have the awesome option to configure a Dynamic Quorum:
Dynamic quorum management
In Windows Server 2012, as an advanced quorum configuration option, you can choose to enable dynamic quorum management by cluster. When this option is enabled, the cluster dynamically manages
the vote assignment to nodes, based on the state of each node. Votes are automatically removed from nodes that leave active cluster membership, and a vote is automatically assigned when a node rejoins the cluster. By default, dynamic quorum management is enabled.
Note
With dynamic quorum management, the cluster quorum majority is determined by the set of nodes that are active members of the cluster at any time. This is an important distinction from the cluster quorum in Windows Server 2008 R2, where the quorum
majority is fixed, based on the initial cluster configuration.
With dynamic quorum management, it is also possible for a cluster to run on the last surviving cluster node. By dynamically adjusting the quorum majority requirement, the cluster can sustain
sequential node shutdowns to a single node.
The cluster-assigned dynamic vote of a node can be verified with the DynamicWeight common property of the cluster node by using the Get-ClusterNodeWindows
PowerShell cmdlet. A value of 0 indicates that the node does not have a quorum vote. A value of 1 indicates that the node has a quorum vote.
The vote assignment for all cluster nodes can be verified by using the Validate Cluster Quorum validation test.
Additional considerations
Dynamic quorum management does not allow the cluster to sustain a simultaneous failure of a majority of voting members. To continue running, the cluster must always have a quorum majority at the time of a node shutdown or failure.
If you have explicitly removed the vote of a node, the cluster cannot dynamically add or remove that vote.

Cluster Network 2 is missing from Failover cluster Manager

I have two node Windows 2008 R2 SP1 MS SQL cluster, there was an issue with one node NIC card which was replaced and since then "Cluster Network 2" is not visible in failover cluster manager, also Heartbeat and Public IP nic card of both nodes
are appearing in "Cluster Network 1" container. even though both network public and hearbeat are on differenet subnet, but still cluster detects it as one subnet. Need to know how to bring back "Cluster Network 2"

After replacing NIC, cluster worked fine on other node for couple of days and then cluster services started terminating on both the nodes.
when checked cluster logs found below error.
"ERR [CORE] Node 2: exception caught AlreadyExists(183)' because of 'already exists'(AODBP2DB1 - Local Area Connection)"
Hence to correct this problem, renamed both nodes NIC cards as Public and Private and cluster was started and tested the failover also. but since then only able to see "Cluster Network 1" and all NIC are listed under this container.
Though when looked at cluster validation report, it shows Cluster Network 1 and Cluster Network 2 entries in it

BizTalk Enterprise Passive Cluster Node Licensing Question

Can anyone confirm if you need to license a passive BizTalk Enterprise cluster node if all BizTalk components are not running? If so is there an official reference I can refer to? The PUR has a section on Running Instances that states components must be
in memory to require a license, but no BizTalk components would be in memory if all services are stopped. All references I have read about passive nodes state they must be licensed though.
Nikolai Blackie Adaptiv Integration

The reason I am asking this question is there is a site with a small cluster with all hosts and SSO under cluster management, on the effectively passive node there are no actually running instance of any BizTalk components. Not strictly HA, but certainly
quicker than DR. Personally I would have just used VM failover but that design decision was made a long time ago.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa578057.aspx
This is a relatively grey area in terms of licensing the configuration and depending on how you interpret PUR non licensable passive nodes appear to valid under the documented terms.
It would just be great if there was something somewhere that said outright all BizTalk servers in a cluster must have an assigned server license, or cluster nodes with no running components are not licensable =)
