Windows Server 2019 Failover Cluster

Hi All,

i have problem with MSFC 2 NODE Cluster.

Every time when i move (online) role i receive error for cluster disks. (Cluster resource 'NameOfDisk' of type 'Physical Disk' in clustered role 'NameOfClusterRole' failed. The error code was '0xaa' ('The requested resource is in use.')) Identical error i receive and for Quorum disk.

By default on disk are set "If resource fails, attempt restart on current node" and from second attempt (under 1 seccond) disk come online and role are moved.

When i stop role then move to another NODE and start role i dont have any problem/error.

NODE are guest VM on VMware 6.7 3I (6.7.0.46) Everything are setup by best practices
https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/6.7/vsphere-esxi-vcenter-server-67-setup-mscs.pdf

RDM Disks:
VMware Paravirtual
SCSI Bus Sharing: Phisical

Does anyone have identical problems?

Best regards,

Igor

Hey,

You can try configuring storage via iSCSI using StarWind VSAN. StarWind can create replicated shared storage pool, which can be connected via iSCSI to your VMs. The following guide will walk you through the configuration process:

Thanks for your posting!

Based on your descriptions, I would like to check the following things for you.

  1. When you moved the role,was there any other code in the event log?

  2. Which role did you move to another node?

Thanks for your time!

Hi Alfred,

  1. I receive error about disk reservation (disk in use) and disk resource failed come online.
    EventID:1069
    Cluster resource 'FileDisk' of type 'Physical Disk' in clustered role 'ClusterRole' failed. The error code was '0xaa' ('The requested resource is in use.').

EventID:1793
Cluster physical disk resource failed to come online.

Resource Name: FileDisk
Device Number: x
Device Guid: {}
Error Code: 170
Reason: ArbitrateFailure

  1. I have problem with any role wich have storage (RDM disk/disks). When moved Cluster owner i receive this error for Quorum disk.

When i create/validate cluster with all disks i don't have any error/problem.

Can i put sleep or anything for pause/wait when get disk offline (last step when stop role) and online (first step when start role)?

Hi lgor,

Thanks for your reply!

Based on your descriptions, I would like to advise you to run the cluster validation to check your cluster to gather some relevant information.

By the way, please run the cluster validation when your cluster is on a maintenance mode to avoid the possible impact caused by the validation.

If you get any error, please capture it with a screenshot. We will see it.

Thanks for your time!
Best Regards,
Alfred
