| Description | The backup operation for the cluster configuration data has been canceled. The cluster Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) writer received an abort request. |
| Event Information | According to Microsoft: Cause : This event is logged when the backup operation for the cluster configuration data has been canceled. Resolution : Retry backup or restore An operation that was attempted as part of a backup or restore did not succeed. Check for the following preconditions to make sure they have been met, and then retry the backup or restore operation: a)The cluster must achieve quorum. In other words, enough nodes must be running and communicating (perhaps with a witness disk or witness file share, depending on the quorum configuration) that the cluster has achieved a majority, that is, quorum. For more information about quorum, with the Failover Cluster Management snap-in open, clickHelp, clickHelp Topics, click theSearch tab, and search for quorum. Open the topic calledUnderstanding Quorum Configurations in a Failover Cluster. b)The account used by the person performing the backup must be in the localAdministrators group on each clustered server, and must be a domain account, or must have been delegated the equivalent authority. Verify : Confirm that the nodes are running and that the backup or restore process succeeded. To perform this procedure, you must be a member of the localAdministrators group on each clustered server, and the account you use must be a domain account, or you must have been delegated the equivalent authority. Viewing the status of the nodes in a failover cluster To view the status of the nodes in a failover cluster: 1.To open the failover cluster snap-in, clickStart, click Administrative Tools, and then clickFailover Cluster Management. If theUser Account Control dialog box appears, confirm that the action it displays is what you want, and then clickContinue. 2.In the Failover Cluster Management snap-in, if the cluster you want to manage is not displayed, in the console tree, right-clickFailover Cluster Management, clickManage a Cluster, and then select or specify the cluster that you want. 3.If the console tree is collapsed, expand the tree under the cluster you want to manage, and then clickNodes. 4.View the status for each node. If a node isUp, the Cluster service is started on that node. Another way to view node status is to run a command on a node in the cluster. Using a command to view the status of the nodes in a failover cluster To use a command to view the status of the nodes in a failover cluster: 1.On the node that you are checking, clickStart, point toAll Programs, clickAccessories, right-clickCommand Prompt, and then click Run as administrator. Type: CLUSTER NODE /STATUS If the node status is Up, the Cluster service is started on that node. |
