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 2012R2 Failover Cluster error with mounted volumes

    Hi all,
    I've a problem with mounted volume on a WSFC build on top of Windows Server 2012R2, the situation is:
    M: is the volume hosting mounting points
    disk-1, disk-2, disk-3 are volume mounted on M:\SomeFolder
    Theese volumes are used by a SQL Server Failover Cluster Instance, but my problem is related to WSFC. I've set dependencies so disk-1, disk-2, disk-3 depend upon H:
    If I try a failover of the role "SQL Server" I observe that when the disk come online in the other node they fail with this error:
    Cluster resource 'disk-1' of type 'Physical Disk' in clustered role 'SQL Server (ISQL2014A)' failed. The error code was '0xaa' ('The requested resource is in use.').
    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.
    If I manually take offline H: and than bring it online and then manually take online all disk (1 to 3) they come online with no error.
    I'm going crazy!

    I've found the root of the problem: the servers are virtual machine on a VMware ESX 5.5 infrastructure, VMware claims that on 5.5 multipath is supported for raw device mapping disks but disabling multipath (I've set to fixed path) the Windows Server Failover
    Cluster stops to get problems.
    Now we have opened a support call with VMware.

  • 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:

  • Windows server 2012 failover cluster error: Cluster resource 'Virtual Machine Configuration ... of type 'Virtual machine configuration in clustered role ... failed.

    I have two windows 2012 host server that are clustered using windows failover cluster feature. Each server is hosting four VMs. When migrating from Host2 to Host1, the migration failed with the following error:
    Cluster resource 'Virtual Machine Configuration SCPCSQLSRV01' of type 'Virtual Machine Configuration' in clustered role 'SCPCSQLSRV01' failed. The error code was '0x569' ('Logon failure: the user has not been granted the requested logon type at this computer.').
    When this happens, the VM that I was migrating can no longer be started even on the original host. The only remedy is to restart the host server.
    Any suggestion on resolving this problem?
    Thanks
    Ikad

    Thanks. The article referred to above gives the solution to my issue. There is a group policy that is applied to the OU where the host servers were placed. Doing gpupdate /force temporarily removes the problem. Unfortunately the NT Virtual Machine\Virtual
    Machines account is a special account that cannot be added like other accounts and granted the log on as a service right. The thread
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverhyperv/thread/d56f2eae-726e-409a-8813-670a406593e8 contains how it can be added which is by creating a group and running the command
    Net localgroup VMTest “NT Virtual Machine\Virtual Machines” /add
    to add it to a local group VMTest. VMTest is then assigned the right to log on as a service.

  • Windows Server 2008 failover cluster in VirtualBox

    Hi,
    I'm a Windows NT student and I need help with understanding how to do clustering using multiple Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise servers in VirtualBox 4.3.8. I have a Windows 7 host computer. I was wondering if someone could provide clearly detailed step-by-step
    directions (ex. Click this, then click that) on what I need to do prior to clustering, as well as starting the clustering process. Please ask if you need additional information. 
    Thank You.

    I'm sorry. I'm such a noob. Should I have 3 virtual machines, where one is the domain controller and the other 2 are nodes? Or is it ok to just have 2 virtual machines?
    It's optional. You just need your both cluster nodes (VMs) belong to the same domain. It can be own domain serviced by your private VM or it can be "external" one. See:
    Using Guest Clustering for High Availability
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn440540.aspx
    Active Directory domain requirements
    Failover clusters require that nodes of the same cluster are members of the same Active Directory domain. However, there is no requirement that a guest cluster belongs to the same Active Directory
    domain as the physical hosts on which the virtual machines are running.
    Also you'll need some shared storage. See (same URL as above):
    Storage options
    The following tables lists the storage types that you can use to provide shared storage for a guest cluster.
    Storage Type
    Description
    Shared virtual hard disk
    New in Windows Server 2012 R2, you can configure multiple virtual machines to connect to and use a single virtual hard disk (.vhdx) file. Each virtual machine can access the virtual hard disk
    just like servers would connect to the same LUN in a storage area network (SAN). For more information, see Deploy a Guest Cluster Using a Shared Virtual
    Hard Disk.
    Virtual Fibre Channel
    Introduced in Windows Server 2012, virtual Fibre Channel enables you to connect virtual machines to LUNs on a Fibre Channel SAN. For more information, see Hyper-V
    Virtual Fibre Channel Overview.
    iSCSI
    The iSCSI initiator inside a virtual machine enables you to connect over the network to an iSCSI target. For more information, see iSCSI
    Target Block Storage Overview and the blog post Introduction of iSCSI Target
    in Windows Server 2012.
    Shared VHDX is out as you don't have proper software (Windows 7 is not supported as a host and Windows 2008 R2 does not support shared VHDX as a guest), virtual Fibre Channel is out as you again don't have Windows Server 2012 R2 (and don't have any FC gear).
    So iSCSI is your only choice. Either spawn dedicated Windows (or other OS if you like UNIX) VM with iSCSI stack or use third-party Windows software running on your host. Windows Server 2008 R2 does not have iSCSI target embedded so you can get it here:
    MSFT iSCSI Target 3.3 Download
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=19867
    Good luck and happy clustering :)

  • Windows Server 2012R2 disks go offline after reboot

    Hi all,
    I've a strange issue in my brand new Windows Server 2012R2, let's describe the environment:
    Hypervisor = VMware ESX 5.5
    Guest OS = Windows 2012 R2 Standard Edition
    I've configured the guest OS with several disk for a SQL Server installation, each disk are presented as "pure" virtual disk to Windows that means no RDM (pass through disk).
    After a reboot I've discovered that SQL Server has failed to come online, on a brief analisys, all the disks except system drive (C:) and a volume dedicated to swap file (D:) have not come online. They are present in disk management, but they are offline.
    I've manually brung online those disk, than reboot and all returned to normality. Subsequent reboot have generated no issues.
    In the system log I have no error message except that one of SQL that fails to came online due to the lack of disks...

    This happened to me too. Except with server 2008 R2 and exchange 2010. My servers replicate offsite using zerto and I was testing failover and noticed the drive D was offline. Brought it online then rebooted and everything was fine.
    So I just build a server 2012 R2 Datacenter edition VM on my production servers, gave it a second disk, initialized it, formatted it and assigned it the drive letter D. Rebooted after installing 3 windows updates and it was offline. There is nothing on this
    server at all. It's a fresh install.
    I'm running ESXi 5.5 build 2302651 with hardware version 8 and VMware tools version 9.4.11 build 2400950.
    From my experience when you see this kind of stuff happen in multiple situations it will happen again. My worry is what if one of my hosts decides to die and HA kicks in and the disk is offline when it boots.
    Anyone have anything to add to this?
    Edit: My DR site where I tested my failover is DAS and my production site is iscsi. So I don't think the storage type matters.
    Edit 2: The SCSI controller type is Paravirtual for all my VM's.

  • Windows Server 2012R2 RDS sound and smartcard redirection issues

    We are using RDS collection with two Windows Server 2012R2 session hosts. Both hosts are virtual servers (clean installation) and are used as session hosts (terminals) with 10 to 25 users each.  RDS Connection Broker is also virtual machine with
    Windows Server 2012 R2. Our users are using Windows 7 Embedded thin clients with MSTSC RDP 8.0.
    Our terminals are running correctly after fresh boot, but in 12 to 48 hours after boot we encounter problem with sound and smardcards redirection in RDP. Remote sound stops working and users cannot login with their smardcards.
    Relogging users doesnt help, deleting profiles doesnt help, restarting sound service doesnt help, only viable way to solve issue is server restart. There is not any event in event log about this issue.

    Hi,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    Sound Redirection:
    Please check the following GP setting as well.
    Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Remote Desktop Services\Remote Desktop Session Host\Device and Resource Redirection
    Limit audio playback quality: Enabled
    Audio Quality: High
    On the Client PC, in the .rdp file that you use to connect to the server, make sure you have the following line:
    audioqualitymode:i:2
    In addition check that the Windows Audio and Windows Audio Endpoint Builder services must be running for audio to work.
    Smartcard redirection:
    Kindly try to update the patch for Smartcard redirection and check the result.
    Smart card redirection in remote sessions fails in a Windows 7 SP1-based RDP 8.1 client

  • 2 Hyper-V Servers with Failover Cluster and a single File Server and .VHDs stored on a SMB 3 Share

    I have 2 X M600 Dell Blades (100 GB local storage and 2 NICs)  and a Single R720 File Server (2.5 TB local SAS storage and 6 NICs).  I´m planning a Lab/developer enrironment using 2 Hyper-V Servers with Failover Cluster and a single File Server putting

    All based on wind2012 R2 STD English version
    You can do what you want to do just fine. Hyper-V / Windows Server 2012 R2 can use SMB 3.0 share instead of a block storage (iSCSI/FC/etc). See:
    Deploy Hyper-V over SMB
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj134187.aspx
    There would be no shared disk and no CSV just SMB 3.0 folder both hypervisor hosts would have access to. Much simplier to use. See:
    Hyper-V recommends SMB or CSV ?
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/d6e06d59-bef3-42ba-82f1-5043713b5552/hyperv-recommends-smb-or-csv-
    You'll have however a limited solution as your single physical server being a file server would be a single point of failure.
    You can use Storage Spaces just fine but you cannot use Clustered Storage Spaces as in this case you'll have to take away your SAS spindles from your R720 box and mount them into SAS JBOD (make sure it's certified). So you get rid of an active components
    (CPU, RAM) and keep more robust all-passive SAS JBOD as your physical shared storage. Better then a single Windows-running server but for a true fault tolerance you'll have to have 3 SAS JBODs. Not exactly cheap :) See:

    Alternative way would be using Virtual SAN similar to VMware VSAN in this case you can get rid of a physical shared storage @ all and use cheap high capacity SATA spindles (and SATA SSDs!) instead of an expensive SAS.

  • Windows Server 2012R2 kerberos authetication failure with IBM iSeries

    Hi all,
    I've an IBM iSeries in my environment configured to use kerberos authentication, this type of SSO works fine from 2 years. Every client Windows 7 or Windows 8 works fine.
    Now I'm planning to deploy Windows 8.1 and Windows Server 2012R2.
    I've made a lot of attempts:
    Windows 2012 -> works
    Windows 8 -> works
    Windows 2012R2 -> does not works
    Windows 8.1 -> does not works
    All the server and workstation involved in thees attempts belong to the same OU and the same user are utilized.
    It seems clear to me that Windows 8.1 / 2012R2 has a different behaviour with kerberos authentication but I don't found anything on the technet.
    Please note that all DC are Windows server 2008R2 by two years.

    Hi, any news for your problem ?
    This setup should work ok.. Any firewall running on the 2012R2 or 8.1 ? did you checked the security log on the DC to see why the ticket was refused ? etc..

  • Windows Server 2012R2 - svchost.exe 60-100% load!

    We are using RDS collection with two Windows Server 2012R2 session hosts. Both hosts are virtual servers (clean installation) and are used as session hosts (terminals) with 10 to 25 users each. RDS Connection Broker is also virtual machine with Windows
    Server 2012 R2. Our users are using Windows 7 Embedded thin clients with MSTSC RDP 8.0.
    There is problem with high cpu load on these servers. Sometimes Svchost.exe starts to cause 60-100% load. Our virtual machines have 10 virtual processor cores. Load is caused by LSM (Local Session Manager) Service from DCOM Launcher group. Svchost
    creates many thread as you can see on picture attached. Sometimes this load disappears after 12-24 hours, sometimes it needs restarting whole server.
    We still cannot find cause of this problem, although we managed to reproduce this issue one time by logging two admin accounts to server console and force disconnecting one of these accounts by third admin account connecting to server console by RDP
    mstsc.exe with -admin parameter.
    Our users are very unsatisfied :-(
    This is screenshot of Process Explorer - svchost.exe - Threads:

    Hi,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    Do you have any recent updates, might happens due to automatic updates which also can cause high cpu through svchost.exe. Please check as suggested by “Larry” by turning off Windows update service. In addition go through beneath articles for more information.

  • Windows Server 2012R2 DHCP Load Sharing Mode

    Hello,
    I am planning to migrate a standalone DHCP Server on Windows 2003 to Windows Server 2012R2. With this migration, I like to use the 2012R2 Load Sharing Mode feature for DHCP. This implementation cover TWO sites.
    My initial plan was to have two Windows 2012R2 DHCP Servers (virtual) at each site thus servers at each offers site redundancy  as well. So two at Site 1 and two at Site 2 on load sharing mode. If ServerA at Site 1 goes down for some reason Server B
    at Site1 will service the DHCP clients in load sharing mode without going to Site 2. I came across a MS document that says:
    Number of Servers: DHCP failover is not supported for more than two DHCP Servers. The failover relationship is always comprised of two DHCP servers.
    Does this mean I can have only TWO DHCP Servers in a load sharing mode. One at Site 1 and the second one at Site 2??
    Thanks in advance
    TIA TP

    Hi,
    The DHCP failover relationship is comprised of DHCP server and its partner.  In a relationship there are just 2 DHCP servers.
    But this doesn’t mean you can just use 2 DHCP servers in your sites.  The DHCP failover setting is based on DHCP scope, for one DHCP scope there could be just one DHCP failover relationship including 2 DHCP servers. If you have more than 1 DHCP scope,
    for example, set DHCP failover relationship between DHCP server 1 and DHCP server 2 for scope A. then set DHCP failover relationship between DHCP server 1 and DHCP server 3 for scope B.
    The document Step-by-Step: Configure DHCP for Failover(http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh831385.aspx) is a introduction about this function and for your reference.
    Depends on the DHCP scope’s configuration and the requirements of your network. You may enhance or customize the architecture of implementation.
