Resources not failing over in a 2 node cluster.

[peter1979]

I have 2 Windows 2003 Enterprise server's. Clustering is set up on both servers in a 2 node active/passive setup.

The first node crashed and the exchange resources did not fail over to second node.

Im not familiar with clustering and I'm trying to find out why the fail over didn't happen.

Could someone give me some tip on how to troubleshoot this?

Check the cluster event log to see what happened.

hi,
before waiting Node1 crashes, what happens if you manually,
once a time, migrate services on Node2 ?

If a service cannot migrate, you see, "change pending",
and then see the sevice start again on Node1.
Seeing events in Node2, you may see the fail motivations.
