The other day I created a new cluster resouce and it failed, causing the cluster to failover. Although the existing resources were set to not affect the group, this new resource was set to do just that. My question is, how to you turn this off when creating a new resource...not after it is created by going into the advanced tab as that would be too late. Next, is there a way to set this as the default setting rather then having it enabled by default.

Before creating the new resource, right click on the group and configure it, and change the number of allowd failovers from 10 to 0. This should prevent the group from failing if the new resource fails. You can then change it back to 10 after changing the setting.
