Error in creating Failover Clutser - Windows Server 2012 R2

Hello,
I have created a single node Failover Cluster in Windows Server 2012 R2. When I am trying to add second node to this cluster, it gives the error: “Cluster
service on node Node1did not reach the running state. The error code is 0x5b4. For more information check the cluster log and the system event log from node Node1. This operation returned because the timeout period expired.
The server 'Node1.mydomain.com' could not be added to the cluster.
An error occurred while adding node 'Node1.mydomain.com' to cluster 'My_Cluster'.
This operation returned because the timeout period expired.”
I have attached the screenshots of Event ID.
Firewalls are turned off on both servers (Node1 and Node2). I have successfully created single node clusters on both servers, but when I try to add second node, it
gives error.
Before starting the creation of new cluster I don't forget to Destroy previous cluster and run "Clear-ClusterNode".
Every time they successfully pass the Validate Configuration Test, but give the error on creating failover cluster.
I'm using the service account which has full permissions on CNU and both nodes, plus it has permissions to create computer accounts in AD.
Can anyone please help?
Thank you.
Best regards,
Hasan Bin Hasib

Thank you fellows!
The issue just resolved when I moved the Node1 and Node2 on the same host, and the cluster was successfully created.
After the creation of cluster, as soon as I moved the Node2 to some other host, then the Failover Cluster Manager console started showing Node2 is Down. Error: Cluster node Node2 could not to join the cluster because it failed
to communicate over the network with any other node in the cluster. Verify the network connectivity and configuration of any network firewalls. Event ID: 1653
IP Address of Node1: 172.16.1.186 ; IP Address of Node2: 172.16.1.187
And yes, the ‘Microsoft Failover Cluster Virtual Adapter Performance Filter’ is already disabled on all virtual adapters. All firewalls are disabled, no antivirus installed. I’m using same type of NICs.
I don’t know where the blockage is, and I am badly stuck. Please help.
Thank you.

  • [SOLVED] Can't add a node to the cluster with error (Exchange 2010 SP3 DAG Windows Server 2012)

    Hi there!
    I have a problem which makes me very angry already :)
    I have two servers Exchange 2010 SP3 with MB role started on Windows Server 2012. I decided to create a DAG.
    I have created the prestaged AD object for the cluster called msc-co-exc-01c, assigned necessary permissions and disabled it. Allowed through the Windows Firewall traffic between nodes and prepared the File Share Witness server.
    Then I have tried to add nodes. The first node has been added successfully, but the second node doesn't want to be added :). Now I can add only one node to the DAG. I tried to add different servers first, but only the first one was added.
    LOGS on the second nodes:

    It's confused me, because there is normal connectivity between these DAG members through the main interface.

  • 0x8056530b error enabling disk deduplication on Windows Server 2012 R2 Volume - any ideas why or how to fix?

    I'm getting the following error when trying to enable disk de-duplication on a volume on my Windows 2012 R2 file server.  The error is:
    "There was an error updating Data Deduplication on volume: MSFT_DedupVolume.Volume='\\?\Volume{8dfc4322-9997-11e3-93f5-005056a84b9b}\' - HRESULT 0x8056530b, The specified volume type is not supported. Deduplication is supported on fixed, write-enabled
    NTFS data volumes and CSV backed by NTFS data volumes."
    The volume in question is a 1TB VMFS volume mounted to the virtual machine that is the Windows file server.  I could find no info anywhere that references this error as it relates to a standard mounted volume or VMware or VMFS. 
    Any ideas on what could be the problem or how to fix it?  I could find nothing in the log files other than an entry which is basically a repeat of the error above.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    - ADEHART
    P.S. This is a volume that was previously mounted on an older Windows 2003 server.  Not sure if that may make a difference.

    have you compared this issue to the ones that are successful and compared what is different?
    Have you made sure of the following:
    Servers
    See the following list for server requirements for deduplication:
    • Server hardware should meet the minimum requirements for running Windows Server 2012. The deduplication feature was designed to support minimal configurations such as a single processor system with 4 GB of RAM and one SATA hard disk drive.
    • If you plan to support deduplication on multiple volumes on the same server, you need to plan an appropriately size for the system to ensure that it can process the data. The general rule is that the server needs 1 CPU-core and 350 MB of free memory to run a deduplication job on a single volume, and that job can process about 100 GB per hour or around 2 TB per day. Deduplication scales with additional CPU core processors and available memory to enable parallel processing of multiple volumes.
    For example: If you have a server with 16 CPU core processors and 16 GB of memory, deduplication uses 25% of the system memory in the default Background Processing mode, and in this case, that would be 4 GB. If you divide by 350 MB, you can calculate that the server could process about 11 volumes at a time. If you add 8 GB of memory, the system could process 17 volumes at a time. If you set an optimization job to run in Throughput mode, the system will use up to 50% of the system’s memory for the optimization job.
    • Data Deduplication supports up to 90 volumes at a time; however, deduplication can simultaneously process one volume per physical CPU core processor plus one. Hyper-threading does not impact this because only physical core processors can be used to process a volume. A system with 16 CPU core processors and 90 volumes will process 17 volumes at a time until all 90 volumes are done, if there is sufficient memory.
    • Virtual server instances should follow the same guidance as physical hardware regarding server resources.
    Volumes
    Volumes that are candidates for deduplication must conform to the following requirements:
    • Must not be a system or boot volume. Deduplication is not supported on operating system volumes.
    • Can be partitioned as a master boot record (MBR) or a GUID Partition Table (GPT), and must be formatted using the NTFS file system.
    • Can reside on shared storage, such as storage that uses a Fibre Channel or an SAS array, or when an iSCSI SAN and Windows Failover Clustering is fully supported.
    • Do not rely on Cluster Shared Volumes (CSVs). You can access data if a deduplication-enabled volume is converted to a CSV, but you cannot continue to process files for deduplication.
    • Do not rely on the Microsoft Resilient File System (ReFS).
    • Can’t be larger than 64 TB in size.
    • Must be exposed to the operating system as non-removable drives. Remotely-mapped drives are not supported.
    Note
    Files with extended attributes, encrypted files, files smaller than 32 KB, and reparse point files are not processed by deduplication.

  • Error With Crystal Reports On Windows Server 2012

    Hello,
    I have a VB.NET exe application created in Visual Studio 2010 that prints a crystal report directly to the printer.  On Windows Server 2008 it worked fine but it does not work on Windows Server 2012.  The report was originally created in Crystal Reports 2011.  I have read elsewhere that in order to run a Crystal Report on WS 2012 that it needs to be created using Crystal Reports for Visual Studio.  So I installed the developer version of Crystal Reports for Visual Studio (v. 13.0.8.1216).  I opened the report in Visual Studio and saved it.  I then installed the CRRuntime_64bit_13_0_8.msi on the WS 2012.  My vb.net exe has the CrystalDecisions assemblies shown below.  When I try to run the exe I get the error below.  Does anyone have any idea as to what I am doing wrong?  Thank you for your input.
    Unhandled Exception: System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'PrintWorkOrderAndDrawing.PrintWorkOrderAndDrawing' threw an exception. ---> System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.En

    or the Crystal Reports runtime is not installed correctly. Please install the appropriate Crystal Reports redistributable (CRRedist*.msi) containing the correct version of the Crystal Reports runtime (x86, x64, or Itanium) required.  Please go to http://

    Hi Thomas
    First the info re.;
    I have read elsewhere that in order to run a Crystal Report on WS 2012 that it needs to be created using Crystal Reports for Visual Studio.
    is incorrect. CRVS will run all reports down to CR 9 without issues. And even reports created in older versions will, for the most part, work just fine.
    The error is rather strange as it normally indicates that an incorrect runtime has been installed. However in your case as you are using CR 13.0.8.1216 and  the 64bit_13_0_8.msi that does not look to be the case. I would like you to double check the CR references in the project. Say, crystaldecisions.crystalreports.engine. It should be version 13.0.2000.0.
    If that is confirmed, then we may be at the permissions mentioned in the error. And I'd use Process Monitor for that. Filter ProcMon for the app exe and run the app. Look at the logs for "Access denied" messages. In the log, look for CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine, see what the exe is doing with it. Where is it trying to load it from? Etc., etc.

  • Sharepoint 2013 - Error installing pre-requisite on Windows Server 2012 R2

    I have been trying to get my Sharepoint 2013 installed on windows server 2012 R2. I was never able to get past the pre-requisite installer. It keeps failing at "Configuring Application Server Role, Web Server (IIS) Role" and was never able to get
    past that.
    In the last 3 days i tried almost all of the suggestions posted in various forums but was never able to get it work. Any insight in to this error and resolution is greatly appreciated.
    Tried all things explained here but didn't work
    KrisS

    I voted for the SharePoint 2013 isn't supported yet link. I spent 4 hours resolving the issue. In my installation, there were many claims by the installer that the application server role is corrupt or unavailable. I dove deep into the installer files and
    found 1 file that was not in the correct place. I am not going to mention it, because it is the reason the installer should fail.
    Downloading and installing sharepoint 2013 sp1 was the answer. Why? Because Windows Server 2012 R2 was my operating system. Windows Server 2012 R2 was not a supported type of installation for SharePoint 2013 until SharePoint 2013 SP1 was released.
    I hope this helps those whom have ben in dire need. Even though Paul was initially correct in his statement, the release of SharePoint 2013 sp1 opens doors.
    @Microsoft, as a former PFE I think you could have done better.

  • Network Connection error when Trying to Install Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials

    Thank you to anyone who can help me out here. I have a brand new machine with known working wifi and wired ethernet adapters (works under Windows 8.1) I am attempting to install Windows Server 2012 Essentials R2. During the install process, the system connects
    to the internet to download updates to help along the install. No problem here. Further down the road after restarting several times and now during the "Configuring Windows Server Essentials" step of the install, I am told "There is no network
    connection. Please fix the connection issue and try again."
    When troubleshooting the connection, I am told that the wifi adapter drivers may not be installed. I have a wireless card in the machine and have also tried disabling the wifi adapter and have been connected successfully via the ethernet port this whole
    time.
    Help, I'm stuck and have been to this point in the install 4-5 times already.
    Thank you.

    Is this a laptop?  Can you remove the wifi? Disable it in BIOS?
    Does the wifi have an IP and internet when it throws the error?
    BTW, when the wizard ask about updates say no.  Takes way too long and does not help anything
    Change the binding order and put the wired on top.
    The Steps?
    Just open your Network and Sharing Center. (Change adapter settings)
    Press an ALTkey on your keyboard to show the menu bar.
    Click on the Advancedmenu
    choose Advanced Settings option
    Adjust your binding order for your NICs to ensure your wired ones are at the TOP

  • Create ISO of Windows Server 2012 R2 Physical Server - NOT VM

    I have a windows server 2012 R2 installed on a physical server. I have windows patches and other firmware upgrades on it. I would like to create a gold image in the form of ISO, so that i can use this ISO and build my other servers. I have read many many
    blogs but none of them have clear steps. I know there are tons of ways to do this for VM, but this is for a physical machine. I have used sysprep, completely messed up my server, i am used there is no warning or anything listed on technet for using this software.
    If anyone has able to do this successfully please let me know. Please don't send me instructions for VM, this is not a VM, it is a physical server. Thanks in advance.

    Okay, it's been a while since I worked with MDT and my memory was bad.  The best thing to do is to download MDT (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40796
    for the 2013 version) and its documentation.  One of the documents is a Quick Start Guide.  It gives you step-by-step instructions on how to do what you are asking.  It doesn't make sense to replicate all that content in a forum when there is
    already a published document.
    Then, if you have problems with performing the tasks, come back to this forum and ask specific questions about the issues you are encountering.
    Note, the documentation assumes working with Windows 8.1, but it also says it supports it for Windows Server. 
    . : | : . : | : . tim
    Thanks Tim. I started working on it, i do have few questions:
    i) Why do i need 3 machines as per the document "Quick Start Guide for Lite Touch Installation.docx"? I am not quite following here, can i just do it on 2 servers, 1 which will capture the image and server 2 will be used to build using captured image.
    ii) I was able to get till Step 41. (page 17 from doc 'Quick Start Guide for Lite Touch Installation.docx'), i do see the ISO created, but it is only 300 MB? My original ISO was 4 gb. I don't think i can just copy the 300 MB iso and build another machine, i
    am lost here, any advice is appreciated.

    Restart your computer or restart your computer in safe mode with network, then try to install the updates. Detailed information you may reference the link below(this applies also to Windows Server 2012 ):
    You receive error 0x80070020 when you use the Windows Update Web site or the Microsoft Update Web site to install updates

  • Windows Server 2012 Windows Backup failed with following error code '0x8078006B' (Windows Backup failed to create the shared protection point on the source volumes.).

    The Volume Shadow Copy service initially was running under the context of System, so we thought that ‘System’ doesn’t have permissions to access network shares. 
    When the Volume Shadow Copy service was running under the context of System, this was the error logged:
    “failed with following error code '0x8078014B' (There was a failure in creating a directory on the backup storage location.).”
    Which is likely due to not having permissions to write to the network location. 
     This is a scheduled backup trying to write to a network location, so we changes the service to run under the context of an account that does have permissions to write to the network share.
      Then the error changed to this:
    “failed with following error code '0x8078006B' (Windows Backup failed to create the shared protection point on the source volumes.).”

    We aren’t really seeing anything that gives any hint on what the issue is. 
    Any ideas?  Thanks in advance!

    We are trying to back up folders/files from 2 local drives (C: & D:), both of which have only 10% space used, and 100 GB free. 
    We are attempting to back the files up to a Remote Shared File (and there is 100+ GB free space out there). 
      If we try another network location, we receive the exact same error. 
     This is Windows Server 2012, not running Hyper-V and is a physical server not a VM.
    Thank you for the link.

  • Failover Cluster Manager : Add node wizard Error " This operation returned because the timeout period expired" Windows Server 2012

    Hi Everybody,
    I have two node cluster and trying to add the third node (which is a Virtual Machine), all nodes are in different subnet and can communication with each other. While adding the third node it gives the error at the end of wizard "  This operation
    returned because the timeout period expired ". My domain controller is 2008 Enterprise Server and nodes are all running Windows Server 2012 Standard Edition. Any idea what is causing the issue.
    thanks 

    Hi,
    Before you add a server (node) to a failover cluster, we strongly recommend that you run the Validate a Configuration Wizard for the existing cluster nodes and the new node
    or nodes. The Validate a Configuration Wizard helps you confirm the configuration in a variety of important ways. For example, it validates that the server to be added is connected correctly to the networks and storage and that it contains the same software
    updates. Please post the error or warning report.
    Please try to install the Recommended hotfixes and updates for Windows Server 2012-based failover clusters:

  • Windows Server 2012 Failover Cluster (Hyper-V) Event Id 1196

    Hi All,
    I just installed Failover Cluster for Hyper-V on windows server 2012 with 2 nodes. I got following error event id 1196.
    reCreated / deleted Cluster Host A record on DNS and nothing happened.
    Any suggestion?
    There is similar topic but it couldnt help

    Regards

    Hi,
    You may refer to this article to troubleshoot this issue;
    Event ID 1196 — Network Name Resource Availability
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd354022(v=WS.10).aspx
    Check the following:
    Check that on the DNS server, the record for the Network Name resource still exists. If the record was accidentally deleted, or was scavenged by the DNS server, create it again, or arrange to have a network administrator create it.
    Ensure that a valid, accessible DNS server has been specified for the indicated network adapter or adapters in the cluster.
    Check the system event log for Netlogon or DNS events that occurred near the time of the failover cluster event. Troubleshooting these events might solve the problem that prevented the clustered Network Name resource from registering the DNS name.
    For more information please refer to following MS articles:
