You have five servers that run Windows Server 2012 R2. The servers have the Failover Clustering feature
installed.
You deploy a new cluster named Cluster1. Cluster1 is configured as shown in the following table.
Server1, Server2/ and Server3 are configured as the preferred owners of the cluster roles. Dynamic quorum
management is disabled.
You plan to perform hardware maintenance on Server3.
You need to ensure that if the WAN link between Site1 and Site2 fails while you are performing maintenance on
Server3, the cluster resource will remain available in Site1.
What should you do?
A.
Remove the node vote for Server3.
B.
Enable DrainOnShutdown on Cluster1.
C.
Add a file share witness in Site1.
D.
Remove the node vote for Server4 and Server5.
Explanation:
Exclude secondary site nodes.
In general, do not give votes to WSFC (Windows Server Failover Clustering) nodes that reside at a secondary
disaster recovery site. You do not want nodes in the secondary site to contribute to a decision to take the
cluster offline when there is nothing wrong with the primary site.
