Combine AlwaysOn AG with file share cluster

We’re a quite small company, but need HA for services in the DMZ. So we decided on SQL 2012 AlwaysOn AG in order to serve load-balanced web servers. (We do use AlwaysOn AG for SharePoint 2010 and a new critical application.) Now the web servers
in the DMZ also run EPiServer; here we need a HA file share for the AppData folder (BLOB files).
Could we combine these requirements on two servers? Or do we have to install four?
MCTS: Messaging | MCSE: S+M

Yes. If you have shared disks you can create an HA file share on the two cluster nodes that you use for your AlwaysOn AG. But this is an unusual configuration.
Another option is to simply use SQL Server as your HA file share using FileTable.
FILESTREAM and FileTable with AlwaysOn Availability Groups (SQL Server)
The cool thing here is that you get an HA file share without a shared disk. All the files saved to the share would be replicated to the other node by the AlwaysOn AG.

File Share Cluster Transfer Issues - Windows 2012 R2 - Two Nodes

Hi There,
I am having some issues in creating a simple file share on a 2 node cluster.
Each "File Server" is Windows 2012 R2 Standard.
Each server has 4 Nic Ports, 2 are configured as a Control Team and the other 2 as a Media Team. The media team is specifically for any storage and file sharing traffic, the control team is purely for access to the server via RDC.
The storage is from a NetApp SAN connected via SAS cables to the 2 "File Servers" and transfer speeds to and from that are good (1GB/s)
I have looked at different step-by-steps to get this working, they all are similar to: https://robertsmit.wordpress.com/2012/06/26/clustering-fileserver-on-windows-2012-step-by-step/
The share permissions are configured with Everyone with Full Control.
Once the file shares are all set up, I can browse the shares and any current folders and files.
I can download any files that exist on these shares...
The issue is when I try to put a file on the share from a "client" server (win 2008 r2) or even from the other node (connecting to the file share location as I would on another machine)
I just get the copying dialogue attached, which sits there for about 3-4 minutes and then just finishes with a Network Error.
This only occurs during an upload of a file to the share.
All servers can ping each other, there are no cluster event errors..
Can anyone help, I need to get this fixed ASAP.
If you need more info then please ask.
Thanks,
-Tim

Hi Tim,
Did you run the cluster validation before you create this cluster? Please disable any firewall or AV soft and install the recommended hotfixes and updates for Windows Server
2012 R2-based failover clusters update to narrow down the issue first.

Problem with file share from iTunes to iPad - not enough memory

Hi
I've got iTunes (10.7.0.21) installed - latest version.
On my iPad I have an app - OpenSong. I need to transfer a number of files to this app throug Application - File share (don't know if this is the correct description, I use a Danish version).
I want to add around 750 small files (1-3 kb) to the iPad. The problem is that it only will copy around 30-60 files at a time before iTunes comes with a box indication that the program encountered a problem and cannot copy the file xxxxx. "Not enough availabel memory".
I then have to close iTunes and continue from where I came to. If i don't, that is I try to copy again, iTunes frequently crashes.
iPad 3, 64 GB - plenty of free memory
Win 7, 4 GB RAM, plenty of free disc space. Windows and iTunes fully updated.
Anyone got an idea? Or how do I report this to Apple?

Hi Damse,
I have the same problem. I also have about the same number of small files to transfer to the iPad. The point at which the transfer through iTunes to the iPad varies within the range you describe. I also have taken to loading in as many files as I can, integrating them into the applicatiom, ejecting the iPad, and stopping and starting iTunes again and repeating the process.

Need help with File Share Subscription in SSRS 2008

Hi,
I have a requirement where I have to deliver a SSRS report in csv format to a windows shared location. I know how to create a File Share Subscription to get this done, but the problem arises with the frequency of the report
requested. It is like following..at 23:00, 23:30, 23:35, 23:40, 23:45, 23:50, 23:55, 24:00, 00:10, 00:20, 00:30, 03:00, 06:00, 09:00, 12:00, 15:00, 18:00, 21:00
Now because the hourly pattern is not in a periodic format I am not able to get this scheduled in a single subscription. To achieve this one approach could creating multiple subscription. But I was wondering
if there is a way to pass on the schedule information programmatically to a subscription, so that I can achieve this by creating just one subscription.
Any expert ideas...

Hi Mtiwari,
Generally, we cannot create such an irregular execution time schedule. However, we can insert the execution time into a table and customize the steps on the job as a workaround. I have tested it on my local environment, the steps below are for your
reference.
Create a table and add the execution time to it using the query below.
Use TestDB
Create table [CustomeSchedule]([ExecuteTime] Date)
Insert into [CustomeSchedule]
values('23:00'),('23:30'),('23:35'),('23:40'),('23:45'),('23:50'),('23:55'),('24:00'),('00:10'),('00:30'),('03:00'),('06:00'),('09:00'),('12:00'),('15:00'),('18:00'),('21:00')
Create a subscription to execute erery Minute.
Connect to SSMS>expand SQL Server Agent>expand Jobs, double-click the Jop.
Select Steps on the left pane on the Job Properties window.
Click Edit button and then use the query for on the command.
IF exists(SELECT [ExecuteTime]FROM [TestDB].[dbo].[CustomeSchedule3] WHERE
LEFT([ExecuteTime],5)=LEFT(CONVERT (time, SYSDATETIME()),5))
BEGIN
exec [ReportServer].dbo.AddEvent @EventType='TimedSubscription', @EventData='9be28f07-3784-4070-802a-b7ca0aec4c7c'
END
Change the @EventType and @EventData to the values in your Job.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Weird issues with file share using both SMB and AFP?

I use my Xserve with 10.4 server primarily as a file server (with a huge RAID array attached via Ultra320 SCSI). I've served files from this server over SMB ("Windows" sharing) to both PCs and Macs for a few years now with no big issues. The files are being shared in a collaborative environment with extensive user accounts and ACLs set up.
I would like to turn on AFP for these same file shares, so those accessing with a Mac can have the added benefits of AFP over SMB. However, I've heard some rumors of some complicated issues developing from the use of both AFP and SMB together on the same folders, in a mixed environment.
The rumors I've heard are things that would happen rarely but enough for it to be significant. For example, a file created over SMB and then edited over AFP would have some problems being re-edited over SMB again, due to some complicated feature that the rumor is unable to explain (something with a resource fork or file locking?). Maybe something weird that just involves the Adobe Creative Suite?
Anyway, I figured I'd throw this out there. Anyone who serves files over both protocols to a varied set of computers and applications having weird issues? Or is everything working for you? Thanks in advance.

Windows 2003 File Share 4 node Cluster: Does Cluster Resources need to be brought offline prior removing / unmapping any LUN's from SAN end?

Hello All,
Recently, on a 4 node Windows 2003 File Share Cluster, we encountered a problem where when trying to remove few shares (that were no longer in use) directly from SAN end crashed the entire Cluster (i.e., other shares also lost their SAN connectivity). I
suppose the Cluster resources need to be brought offline prior removing it from SAN but I've been advised that these shares were not the root and instead a 'mount point' created within the share; and hence there is no need of bringing down any Cluster resources
offline.
Please can someone comment on the above and provide me detailed steps as to how we go about reclaiming SAN space from specific shares on a W2003 Cluster?
p.s., let me know if you need any additional information.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Alex,
The problem started when SAN Support reclaimed few storage LUNs by unmapping them from our clustered file servers. When they reclaimed the unused LUNs, other SAN drives which were there also disappeared causing the unavailability of file shares.
Internet access is not enabled on these servers. Servers in question are running 64-bit Windows Server 2003 Sp2. This is a four node file share cluster. When the unsued LUN's were pulled, the entire Cluster lost its SAN connectivity. Windows cluster service
was not starting on any of the cluster nodes. To resolve the problem all the four cluster nodes were rebooted after which cluster service started on all the cluster nodes and resources came online.
Some of the events at the time of problem occurrence were,

Unable to restrict file share access

I've got a weird issue with file share and firewall settings that has had me stumped for a couple of days. Hopefully someone can explain what I'm doing wrong or overlooking.
I've got a single dedicated box running Server Essentials 2012 hosted in a datacenter. The server is using a single NIC with a single static public IP address - no local routing or NAT.
I've also setup VPN access via RAS. Using NAT, VPN clients are assigned an IP from a static range of completely different IPs.
I'd like to ensure that file sharing services are only available to VPN clients, not over the public IP address to anyone connected to the internet.
I've tried setting the local and remote address scope on the default firewall rules for ports 138, 137, 139, 445 and even RPC rules, but shares remain accessible to everyone.
So far the only way I've been able to block access is to create new rules explicitly preventing traffic on the aforementioned ports, but that obviously blocks sharing for VPN clients as well.
Any insight is welcome. Sincere thanks in advance.

Firstly id look at getting something more powerful in front of the server instead of having a public ip assigned to it.
Second, you can use Windows Firewall to Block all traffic from external sources, except VPN traffic. Then setup a new rule to allow all traffic from your VPN subnet to the server.
Ill be honest and say i dont really understand your setup, based on your description it seems very odd indeed.

AlwaysOn Cluster reboot due to file share witness unavailability

Hi Team,
Anyone came across this scenario in AlwaysOn Availability Group (two node), file share witness times out and RHS terminate and cause the cluster node to reboot. File share witness is for continuous
failover and if the resource is unavailable my expectation was that it should go offline and should not impact Server or Sql Server. But its rebooting the cluster node to rectify the issue.
Configuration
Windows Server 2012 R2 (VMs) - two node, file share witness (nfs)
Sql Server 2012 SP2
Errors
A component on the server did not respond in a timely fashion. This caused the cluster resource 'File Share Witness' (resource type 'File Share Witness', DLL 'clusres2.dll') to
exceed its time-out threshold. As part of cluster health detection, recovery actions will be taken. The cluster will try to automatically recover by terminating and restarting the Resource Hosting Subsystem (RHS) process that is running this resource. Verify
that the underlying infrastructure (such as storage, networking, or services) that are associated with the resource are functioning correctly.
The cluster Resource Hosting Subsystem (RHS) process was terminated and will be restarted. This is typically associated with cluster health detection and recovery of a resource.
Refer to the System event log to determine which resource and resource DLL is causing the issue.

Thanks Elden, We were using DFS name for the file share! We gave the actual file share name and looks good now.
Few interesting facts, the failure happens exactly between window 12:30 PM to 1:30 AM and it never recorded any error specific to DFS! Not sure if there was any daily maintenance or task happens during the window pertaining to DFS.
+ DFS is not supported or recommended by Microsoft
Do not use a file share that is part of a Distributed File System (DFS) Namespace.

The SMB client failed to resume a handle on a file share with continuous availability

Hi.
We have a 2-node WS2012 cluster that has a file server role with couple shares configured.
We're however constantly getting spammed by the following errors in the eventlog:
1) event 1002, source: SmbServer, message: "RKF failure - SRV2 failed to get acknowledgement from Resume Key filter for persistent handle request."
2) SCOM has an alert opened with this description: "SMB client failed to resume Continuously Available (CA) handle as Resume Key Filter is not acknowledging the handle." Per the alert knowledge, we've inspected ResumeKeyFilter eventlog, but it
contains only informational message and warnings and none of those are from the time the alert was created.

Seeing event 1564 causing failure in two node cluster, with file witness on same subnet (at same, low latency, high bandwidth site)

Hello all,
Yesterday, we faced an issue early in the day that our cluster removed all active nodes (exchange 2010 DAG). and the root cause was because we lost contact with the alternate cluster node (over a WAN link), and concurrently lost connectivity to the file
witness share (event id 1564 was recorded).
The odd thing is that the cluster should be tolerant to having the second node be unreachable, as long as the file witness share is reachable by the node. Being that the file witness share is located at the same physical site (possibly inside the same
hypervisor host), the idea that the share is ever unreachable is very interesting!
The system engineering team has adjusted the CrossSubnetDelay and CrossSubnetThreshold values, but I do not think this will solve the problem of the file witness server being inaccessible by the node.
[PS] C:\>cluster /prop | Select-String "Subnet"
D CONTOSO-DAG CrossSubnetDelay 4000 (0xfa0) # not default
D CONTOSO-DAG CrossSubnetThreshold 10 (0xa) # not default
D CONTOSO-DAG PlumbAllCrossSubnetRoutes 0 (0x0)
D CONTOSO-DAG SameSubnetDelay 1000 (0x3e8) # default
D CONTOSO-DAG SameSubnetThreshold 5 (0x5) # default
What can I further investigate in relation to the file witness share being inaccessible? Are there any settings that we can adjust to make sure the node is more tolerant to file witness share availability? There may be a variety of things occurring
on the file witness share server, like VSS snapshots, etc. But none of these things are expected to be interferring with the operations of (1) the OS, or (2) the availability and accessibility of any share.
Thanks,
Matt

Hi mbrownnyc,
The quorum configuration in a failover cluster determines the number of failures that the cluster can sustain while still remaining online.
If an additional failure occurs beyond this threshold, the cluster will stop running.
A common perception is that the reason why the cluster will stop running if too many failures occur is to prevent the remaining nodes from taking on too many workloads and having the hosts be overcommitted.
Generally multi-site clusters have two sites with an equal number of nodes at each site, giving an even number of nodes.
By adding this additional vote at a 3rd site, there is an odd number of votes in the cluster, at very little expense compared to deploying a 3rd site with an active cluster node and writable DC. Therefore when your cluster node can connect the witness
and got the higher vote, that node will keep running when others node fail.
Please offer use more information about your environment, such as your server edition and your network nic advanced configuration. You can install all the recommend update
or following the following steps to narrow the issue first.
1.Configure Heartbeat according your network delay and DNS Settings in a Multi-Site Failover Cluster

b) Check wet nodes are communicating properly with FSM.
c) Increase the heart beat interval by running the commands:

Follow this article
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd197562(WS.10).aspx
d) Confirm your cluster CNO have full permissions on the FSW.
2. Check if AV scanning is set properly on C:\Windows\Cluster folder and FSW folder
3. Uninstall Symantec Endpoint Protection for troubleshooting purpose
4. Break the teaming if you are using it.

File Share Witness Resouces Errors in a SQL 2012 Alwayson Availability Group Environment

Hi I am getting the following error in WFC Manager and in my system event log:
Event ID1564:
File share witness resource 'File Share Witness' failed to arbitrate for the file share '\\SQL2012ClusterWitnessPath'. Please ensure that file share '\\SQL2012ClusterWitnessPath' exists and is accessible by the cluster.
Event ID 1069:
Cluster resource 'File Share Witness' of type 'File Share Witness' 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.
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.
These errors showed up every hour on the hour and then suddenly stopped. I tried looking at the cluster.log file but there wasn't anything recorded there. The file share witness shows to be online and my AG did not fail over to another node.
The cluster has read and write permissions to the share. I did not find any error messages about the witness share on the remote server.
I am wondering what caused these series of events to occur?
Thanks.

Hi Kevin Ni,
Thanks for your reply. I have ran the validation test and I have 2 warnings. My environment has 2 nodes and 2 AG's with each node a failover for each AG. So that each node hosts and primary and a secondary of an AG. Both nodes are
on the same subnet. Here are the errors.
- Validate Multiple Subnet Properties
The RegisterAllProvidersIP property causes the network name to register all dependent IP addresses whether they are online or offline. Some DNS servers and clients in multi-subnet (multi-site) environments can identify the IP address that is in their subnet
and attempt connections only to that address. In such environments, it is usually best to set RegistrerAllProvidersIP to 1. This reduces DNS replication delays.
The RegisterAllProvidersIP property for network name 'Name: Listener1' is set to 1. For the current cluster configuration this value should be set to 0.

Windows Failover Cluster (Errors retrieving file shares)

I'm having an issue with Windows Failover Cluster with a Windows Server 2012 R2 machine. I have two cluster nodes (nodeA and nodeB). My issue is that when nodeA is the owner node, and I open failover cluster manager <clusterName> >>
roles >> <fileserver role> >> shares tab it will hang and say that it is loading, but this will occur infinitely. Although when I go to nodeB (not the owner node) and I go to shares it will show me all of the shares that I have. Next when
I go to <clusterName> >> Nodes >> click on Roles tab the information says "There were errors retrieving file shares."
Now when I switch the nobeB to the owner node, I cannot view the shares on that machine but can now view them on nodeA.
We alse have a test network where I have recreated the machines, environment and the failover cluster to as close as the production network as I can except everything works great in the test network

For anybody searching on this later...
I was getting "There were errors retrieving file shares" no matter which node of my cluster
owned the fileshare service. Turns out my problem was that my servers don't have internet access and I had set a system proxy. The fix described in the link below was to exclude the local domain from the proxy.

Quorum location for Failover cluster file share witness

So, I've done quite a bit of searching for what I'm about to propose and I've been able to find nothing.
I currently have a multi site failover cluster hosting separate 2-node SQL clusters at each site connected through an Availability Group. For the failover cluster I am using a file share witness hosted on a server at the primary site. Both sites
are built entirely on vSphere 5.5 and have full replication for the production servers. If the primary site goes down (disaster), I'll need to force quorum in the secondary site to a new file share witness.
Well, I got to thinking...
Why not just replicate the server hosting the file share? I completely understand the reasoning behind not putting the file share witness on DFS, but a replicated virtual server, why not? If the primary site fails, the replicated server hosting
the file share witness is brought online with the rest of the production servers in the DR site. In that case, the only thing that changes is the server IP address, but ultimately, the server name and share where quorum is hosted all stays the same.
Ultimately this prevents needing to find a 3rd geographical/cloud location to host a quorum/witness at. I can't imagine it's this "simple", but maybe it is. If this is possible, and there's not something I'm missing, this essentially
makes the quorum file share witness site agnostic, meaning it could live or be moved anywhere that replication is allowed.
Ideas, thoughts? Am I missing something?
Thanks!
Chris Miller

Most likely it would be better to put this question to the High Availability forum -
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=winserverClustering
But, might need a more complete definition of your environment. Are you saying that you have multiple 2-node clusters, each with one node in the primary and the second node in the DR site? And you have a single file share server located in primary that
is used to host the file share witnesses for all these clusters? You want to use VMware to replicate the file share server to the DR site so that it can be made available should the primary site fail?
It should work, but it will not be automatic. After all, the replicated VM will need to be brought online at the DR site so the SQL cluster will recognize it. That is not an automatic process. So the cluster will be down until
you bring the file share server online so it can be recognized. Not a whole lot different that simply forcing the DR SQL host to run without quorum.

Vm in a file share. none cluster disk

First, thanks for the help.
I have two host in VMM
2012 (not in cluster).
Both hosts have configured a file
share. I have a VM with
vm-hard-drive, and
vm-file, stored on the shared drive.
I can move the "control"
of the machine from one host to another?
now asks for the location
of VM files. I have
to have two VM files, one for each
host?
Thanks for the help.
http://kinomakino.blogspot.com

Can both hosts see the share? Both of the host need to have full access to the share.
Also, as the host servers are not clustered you'll need to setup constrained delegation.
You can follow this technet article to configure constrained delegation.

Clustered File share Permissions won't set (with error)

I have a s2012r2 cluster with a file server. When i go to create a new share it creates with read only permissions and i cannot change it to full or read/write. it is just the share permissions that won't set. when i create a share the error i get is "The
Cluster Resource could not be found." if i try to edit the share permissions the error is "Error Occurred while update an SMB share: The cluster resource could not be found" the admin share is working perfectly and the folder permissions are
accurate.
The only solution to this problem i have found online that worked for someone is to destroy the cluster and rebuild it. I really don't want to do that.

Hi RaVell(Pinki),
