Cluster resource 'Analysis Services' of type 'Generic Service' in clustered role 'SQL Server' failed.

Question

Windows Server 2012 R2
SQL Server 2012
After a recent cluster failover from node 1 to node 2, the Analysis Services role is in a failed state, with the service stopped. When attempting to start the service, there are two error messages captured in Failover Cluster Manager:

Description:
Cluster resource 'Analysis Services (HASQL)' of type 'Generic Service' in clustered role 'SQL Server (HASQL)' 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.

With just these generic error messages being present, this has been difficult to diagnose. Some research has yielded possible resolutions of the Event Viewer log being full, .NET corruption, missing registry entries, but none of those seem to be the issue
(Event Viewer logs cleared, Analysis services is working on the same physical servers in a different cluster, and the registry entries was only a supported issue for SQL Server 2008 and 2008 R2).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

Bring up Configuration Manager, look at binary path for SSAS.  Make sure BOTH folders exist.  Sometimes with failovers mappings get screwed up.
