You are employed as a network administrator at ABC.com. ABC.com has a single Active Directory
domain named ABC.com. All servers on the ABC.com network have Windows Server 2012
installed.
ABC.com has two servers, named ABC-SR07 and ABC-SR08, which are configured in a two-node
failover cluster.
You are currently configuring the quorum settings for the cluster. You want to make use of a
quorum mode that allows each node to vote if it is available and in communication.
Which of the following is the mode you should use?
A.
Node Majority
B.
Node and Disk Majority
C.
Node and File Share Majority
D.
No Majority: Disk Only
Explanation:
There are four quorum modes:
Node Majority: Each node that is available and in communication can vote. The cluster functions only with a majority of the votes, that is, more than half.
Node and Disk Majority: Each node plus a designated disk in the cluster storage (the “disk witness”) can vote, whenever they are available and in communication. The cluster functions only with a majority of the votes, that is, more than half.
Node and File Share Majority: Each node plus a designated file share created by the administrator (the “file share witness”) can vote, whenever they are available and in communication. The cluster functions only with a majority of the votes, that is, more than half.
No Majority: Disk Only: The cluster has quorum if one node is available and in communication with a specific disk in the cluster storage.
