Confirm that the networks in the nodes are enabled, one or more writeable domain controllers are available on the network, and that elements of the network such as hubs, switches, or bridges appear to be functioning.
- On a domain controller, use Active Directory Users and Computers to confirm that a computer account (computer object) exists with the same name as the Network Name resource, and that the account is enabled.
- On a domain controller, for the computer account that you confirmed in the previous item, make sure that in the account permissions, Full Control has been assigned to the computer account of the cluster, which will have the same name as the cluster.
To perform the following procedures, you must be a member of the local Administrators group on each clustered server, and the account you use must be a domain account, or you must have been delegated the equivalent authority.
