| Event Information | According to Microsoft :
Cause :
This event is logged when Generic application could not be brought online during an attempt to create the process.
Resolution :
Confirm application settings
If you do not currently have Event Viewer open, see "Opening Event Viewer and viewing events related to failover clustering." If the event contains an error code that you have not yet looked up, see "Finding more information about error codes that some event messages contain." After reviewing events, confirm that the following are true for the application used by the clustered Generic Application instance: - The application is fully installed on all nodes that are possible owners of the Generic Application resource. For more information about viewing possible owners of a resource, see "Viewing or changing the service name and other settings for a clustered Generic Application instance."
- The configuration for the Generic Application resource specifies the correct application and path. For more information, see "Viewing or changing the service name and other settings for a clustered Generic Application instance."
- The configuration for the Generic Application resource specifies appropriate parameters and settings for registry replication. (Registry replication settings ensure that all application configuration information being stored in the registry is replicated to all nodes.)
If all of the preceding items appear to be configured correctly, check Event Viewer for other errors related to the application to see what might be interfering with application startup.
To perform these procedures, you must be a member of the local Administrators group on the server, or you must have been delegated the equivalent authority.
