| Description | The log file D:\MSCS\Quolog.log was found to be corrupt. An attempt will be made to reset it, or you should use the Cluster Administrator utility to adjust the maximum size. |
| Event Information | "According to Microsoft: CAUSE : The error message can occur if the quorum log file (Quolog.log) cannot be found or read at Cluster service startup. This file must be readable to confirm that the cluster configuration on the local node is current. If the Cluster service cannot read the log, the service is not prevented from loading stale configuration data. The log file may be corrupted if the time and date stamp of the Chkxxx.tmp file does not match the stamp of the Quolog.log file in the \MSCS folder on the quorum drive. The corruption can occur if you recently performed a restore operation, or if you experienced a power outage. RESOLUTION : To resolve this issue, start the Cluster service with the -ResetQuorumLog switch: 1. Start the Computer Management snap-in. 2. Open the properties of the Cluster service. 3. In the Start Parameters box, type -ResetQuorumLog, and then start the Cluster service. 4. To make sure that everything is running correctly, stop the Cluster service, and then start it again without any parameters. If this procedure does not start the Cluster service, you may have to completely re-create the checkpoint and the Quolog.log file from the local cluster registry. To do so: a. Start Computer Management. b. Open the properties of the Cluster service. c. In the Start Parameters box, type -NoQuorumLogging, and then start the Cluster service. d. Start Windows Explorer, and then move the Quolog.log file and all the Chkxxx.tmp files that are in the MSCS folder that is on the quorum drive to the root of the quorum drive so that they do not exist in the MSCS folder. e. Switch to Computer Management, and then stop the Cluster service. f. In the Start Parameters box, type -ResetQuorumLog, and then start the Cluster service again. Note : If the cluster is running Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 (SP4), and if the KB 872970 hotfix is installed, do not use the -ResetQuorumLog switch. Y |
