Failover Cluster events through email

Team,
I'm trying to get  Windows Server 2008 Failover clustering events through email. I don't see  "Attach a task" option in Clustering events.
Could anybody suggest how to accomplish it. Please note down we have a 4 node cluster and would like to run the script on remote computer.
Thanks 

Hi Reddy, this forum is not for writing scripts. Please request in this

Hi Chen, It seems to be you misunderstood my question. I was looking for Attach a task" option in Clustering events. Do you  see this option in clustering events?  You can see the same in event viewer but not in clustering events

  • Windows Server 2012r2 Failover Cluster Event Trace Log files

    Hi
    The only documentation I can find regarding event trace log files (Diagnostic.etl.*) for Failover Clustering relate to Server 2008/2008r2, which state that the etl files should be in C:\Windows\System32\winevt\Logs.
    I have been exploring a clustering lab for Server 2012r2 and cannot find these files in that folder.
    Strangely the PS cmdlet Get-ClusterLog still works!
    Where are the etl files?
    TIA

    Hi,
    Please check if the log is available in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\WER\ReportQueue\.
    If not, you can use Get-ClusterLog with the Destination parameter to get the log file.
    Destination
    Specifies the location to copy the cluster log(s) to. To copy to the current folder use "-Destination ." for this parameter.

  • 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
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverClustering/thread/2ad0afaf-8d86-4f16-b748-49bf9ac447a3/
    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:

  • Failover Cluster Instance always on

    we have two node cluster active passive with shared storage , I have setup AlwaysOn as DR on standalone instance
    daily morning on failover cluster events, i am getting following critical events
    On windows log i couldn't see much information, please help me

    Can you provide the version of Windows Server that you are using as cluster nodes? Behavior will be different between Windows Server 2008, 2012 and 2012 R2. While in the past, changing the NodeWeight property of a cluster node may be an appropriate solution,
    Windows Server 2012 R2 introduced dynamic witness where a witness is configured to either have a vote or not have a vote depending on the state of the cluster and the quorum. Combined with dynamic quorum (which was introduced in Windows Server 2012,) which
    dynamically adds or removes a vote from a node depending on the status, the behavior will be different depending on what version of Windows Server you are running. A more appropriate approach (if you are running Windows Server 2012 or 2012 R2) is to configure
    the LowerQuorumPriorityNodeID property of the cluster.

  • Network Name Resource Availability - failover cluster error 1196 on Hyper-V 2012 R2 nodes

    Hello,
    We're getting this error in our even logs of our four node failover cluster, we tried deleting Host A record in DNS management, that did nothing.
    Failover cluster event: 1196
    "Cluster network name resource 'CAUCrgt8' failed registration of one or more associated DNS name(s) for the following reason: This operation returned because the timeout period expired.

  • Exchange 2013 DAG - Failover Cluster Warnings

    I have two new Exchange servers (PROD1 and DR1) that I recently updated to CU8 in preparation for going into production.  After reboots, I noticed that I had a warning on the "Server Manager" window.
    PROD1 lists itself, DR1, and DAG1 as servers though it marks DAG1 as not accessible.
    DR1 lists only itself and PROD1.  It does not list DAG1.
    PROD1 is generating a ton of failover cluster errors (1205, 1254, 1069, 1044) while DR1 is clean.
    In the Failover Cluster Manager of each server, the object of DAG1 is listed as "Offline".  It has two IPs - one for each of the Exchange servers' subnets (this is where I think I screwed up).  The IP for PROD1's subnet is 10.2.8.131
    and is "Failed" and the IP of DR1 is 10.4.8.131 and is "Offline".  The IP of PROD1 is 10.2.8.132 and DR1 is 10.4.8.132.
    Attempts to bring the cluster object online fail "due to the failure of one or more provider resources".
    The instructions I followed to set up the DAG did not mention the need for multiple NICs.  I now think this is incorrect and would be willing to use separate subnets and NICs for the DAG if necessary.  (I could use 10.2.12.X and 10.4.12.X instead.)
    I am currently still able to fail the database copy between DR1 and PROD1 without any problems.

    Hi Jkm,
    As you said :PROD1 is generating a ton of failover cluster errors (1205, 1254, 1069, 1044) while DR1 is clean.
    I suggest you post failover cluster errors to
    [email protected] for our troubleshooting.
    If there are any questions regarding this issue, please be free to let me know. 
    Best Regard,
    Jim

  • CSV V/s Pass through disks with HV 2012 R2 failover cluster

    Hi
    We are using HV 2012 R2 failover cluster with CSV. We found some articles saying pass through disks outperforms CSV. Is this correct?

    Hi

    "The juice isn't worth the squeeze" (c) ...
    Tim is 200% correct here: any performance gains (if any...) you'll get will fade in darkness compared to management burden you'll have with pass-thru disks (issues with failover, VM migration and no
    real support with a major VM backup vendors). Making long story short: don't do it.

  • Event Logs of VMs Migration in Failover Cluster of Hyper-V Hosts

    Hello All,
    We're running Failover Cluster of Hyper-V hosts of Windows Server 2012 R2. Using SCVMM 2012 R2 with UR5 for management.
    If any host gets down unexpectedly (due to any reason power/bugcheck/hardware failure or what so ever), then the VMs on that host, of course, get migrated (either quick or live) to some other host within the cluster.
    I want to have logs/events of this VMs migration. I want to know that which of the VMs were residing on that host at that time of failure. Of course, we can't have this info in the Cluster events is Failover Cluster Manager. I am unable to find this info
    anywhere. I have searched in Event Viewer --> Administrative Roles --> Hyper-V. I have searched a lot in the SCVMM, but no success.
    Please help me in finding the exact location of these logs/events. I would also like to know that if the VM was quick migrated or live migrated, and to which host the VM got migrated.
    I'd be highly grateful.
    Thanks in anticipation.
    Regards,
    Hasan Bin Hasib

    This post was cross-posted in the clustering forum.  As noted in that forum, a failure of a host does not initiate a quick or live migration.  Migration requires both the source and destination nodes be operational during the entire migration
    process.  Should a host fail, it is impossible for that host to participate in a migration.  In the case of a host failure, the VM is restarted on another node of the cluster.  You can still use the information provided by Elton for viewing
    events in the event log.  If you want to see the exact sequence of log entries, perform quick/live migrations in a lab and notices the changes in the event log.  You can also fail a host and see the sequence of log entries.

  • Event Trace Session missing for Failover Cluster

    I have a failover cluster setup and is managed via a Windows Domain controller for the failover cluster network.  I am troubleshooting a potential issue with the failover cluster and the recommendation is to go into event viewer, app & service
    logs, Microsoft, windows and look for failover cluster diagnostics and operations logs and these do not exist. 
    It appears they are created by having an event trace session associated with windows failover clustering but apparently it was't created when the cluster was created for some reason.  I am wondering how to create the proper event trace session
    in order to get these additional failover cluster logs created?

  • Virtual Domain Controllers in 2012 Failover Cluster. Time Skew

    Hi All,
    Not sure if this is the correct space for this topic, however i'll give it a go anyway.
    We have a 2 Hosts (HP DL385) Windows Server 2012 Failover Cluster.
    Storage is provided by a 12 Bay NAS with iSCSI connections (This is catering for CSV's and Quorum)
    We are running 2 Virtual domain controllers (2008R2)
    The issue we experience is that if the cluster goes down, and when it comes back online the time on the domain controllers (one or the other or both) skews by any where up to 3 days which causes havoc for our office until we can resync clocks with the PDCe.
    Time Synchronisation Integration Service is disabled on both Domain Contollers
    A few days back we need to reboot the storage on the cluster, and the tasks performed were as follows:
    -Power off all virtual machines (Graceful Shutdown)
    -Put all CSV's into maintenance mode
    -Offline Disk Witness to Quorum
    -Rebooted Storage (Waited until it came back online)
    -Online Quorum Storage (Successful)
    -Bring CSV's out of maintenance mode (Successful & Browsable)
    -Power on all Virtual Machines (Successful)
    This is where the time Skewed and caused headaches. The time for some reason went to 2 days 11hrs in the past on 1 domain controller.
    With this DNS lookups failed to work, Cluster services failed, Cluster Aware Updating Failed, RDP to VM's (and Virtual Hosts) by DNS Name failed (Date time error) 
    There doesn't seem to be anything in the EventLog except for date/time stamp on events being 2 days in the past.
    Now this is why i'm not sure if the issue is cause by fail over clustering, or is an issue with the domain controllers.
    Any advice regarding this or if anyone has seen this behaviour before any info would be great
    Thanks
    Rob 

    Hi Rob,
    Does both this two DCs on your cluster VM and there have not others DCs? Microsoft recommends that files for virtualized domain controllers be placed on non-CSV
    disks, Non-CSV disks can be brought online without authentication. Because non-CSV disks can be brought online more easily.
    For virtual machines that are configured as domain controllers, it is recommended that you disable time synchronization between the host system and guest operating
    system acting as a domain controller. This enables your guest domain controller to synchronize time from the domain hierarchy, please confirm your PDC time is always correct.

  • One of cloud doesn't work in failover with Event ID 1205 and 1069 and unable to move services and application another node

    Any one please respond.
    I've been working on creating a windows server 2008 R2 cluster for about a month now and I keep getting an error whenever I try to add a 2nd node. I keep
    getting The cluster node is not reachable. However, when I validate the configuration, everything goes through success. I created and destroyed the cluster a couple of times, but no luck. I even re-installed Windows Server 2008 R2 on both servers, re-configured
    the iSCSI, and the same warning keeps coming up. 
    I installed a new a new SQL Server 2008R2 Named Instance on an exisiting SQL Server cluster node (Node 1 &Node2). When I try to manually fail
    over 
    the Services and applications  to another node (Node1 to node2) using Failover Cluster Manager, I get the errors
    The cluster has these Events:
    Event ID
    1069: Cluster resource 'IP Address xx.xx.xx.xx' in clustered service or application 'ClusterDtc' failed.
    Event ID 1205:The Cluster service failed to bring clustered service or application 'ClusterDtc' completely online

    Dear Ravikumar
    From clone support they given reply mail...
    mail from Ramu...
    That would be a typical work around in this situation. But what we intend to do cannot be accomplished through this work around as we need the validations to complete successfully.
     We are looking for an option either to get the driver signed or use a different signed adapter for the same. Could you please suggest us something on that line. 
    Mail from Support....
    Hello,
    Unfortunately this is not something that we would be able to do in a virtual environment; You are welcome to try different drivers however we would not be able to provide any support 
    for untrusted drivers. The only true solution would be to upgrade from a VM to a dedicated server where you would have control of all the drivers as there is no virtualization layer to
     contend with. Stepping into the territory of untested drivers for a custom configuration in a virtual environment will certainly prove to be an uphill battle.
     I would advise contacting Microsoft's support for additional assistance as they will be able to provide the most accurate information regarding this concern.

  • Failover cluster name missing subnet on DAG

    I've seen this multiple times and can't figure it out and end up having to recreate the DAG. On Server 2012 / Exchange 2013 I've experienced problems with the IP / subnet in failover cluster.
    Its like the DAG name loses the ip address (or someone deleted it).
    But the problem is when I open failover cluster manager and look at the properties of the "DAG Name" and try to add an IP address, it doesn't have the subnet that DAG nic is on. Each server has a MAPI and a DAG nic. Why does it only show the MAPI
    nic subnet and not the DAG nic?

    Hi,
    Based on the description, you can't check "Allow clients to connect through this network" on MAPI network.
    Is there any error message when you try to check "Allow clients to connect through this network"?
    Besides, please check if there is any related events in the application log.
    And please check the network settings on DAG member, you can look at the folllowing article.

  • Failover cluster-Online(redirected) access message

    Hi,
    I have a four node cluster with CSV enabled. Out of the three disks in CSV, one of them is showing  the status as "online(redirected access)". The other two disks are showing the correct status "Online". When checking the "critical
    events" section of the failover cluster i could see the following message:
    Cluster Shared Volume 'Volume4' ('Cluster Disk 1') is no longer directly accessible from this cluster node. I/O access will be redirected to the storage device over the network through the node that owns the volume. This may result in degraded performance.
    If redirected access is turned on for this volume, please turn it off. If redirected access is turned off, please troubleshoot this node's connectivity to the storage device and I/O will resume to a healthy state
    I'm using win 2008 R2. How should i know the exact cause of the  above issue?
    I checked the four possible causes as per http://blogs.technet.com/b/askcore/archive/2010/12/16/troubleshooting-redirected-access-on-a-cluster-shared-volume-csv.aspx
    Please help me.
    Regards,
    Jaffer

    Hi,
    I used perfmon counters on all the nodes and checked the "Cluster CSV File System" - Redirected Read Bytes & Redirected Write Bytes". I checked on all the four nodes.
    On hpv7, i can see both "Redirected Read Bytes & Redirected Write Bytes" to volume4 as zero.
    However on other nodes, "Redirected Read Bytes & Redirected Write Bytes" to  volume4 are having non-zero values.
    So is the storage connection from hpv7 to volume4 having issues?
    Please update.

  • Microsoft update KB 3002657 and 2008 R2 failover cluster for virtualization

    After installing Microsoft update KB 3002657 on my Windows 2008 R2 failover cluster for virtualization, nodes in cluster lost connection to CSV and all my VM's were moved to node owning the volume.
    I lost whole day to solve that problem.
    But should i keep that update not installed on cluster nodes or anyone maybe has a solution for that ?

    Hi a3pl,
    Unfortunately, the available information is not enough to have a clear view of the occurred behavior from the cluster perspective. Please offer us
    more information such as the failover cluster validation error, the failover error event ID, with the current information it is difficult to presume which part may cause this issue, we strongly suggest you install the following update when you use failover
