Hi Scott,
Thanks. Could it be I have the server's DNS entries as our secondary DNS
nodes, that just accept dumps from the prmaries (it is a secondary to the AD
integrated zone). I will change the DNS entries on the server to point to
the primaries.
How do I run the setup again when all the options it gives me are greyed out
for server roles? It also has passive node checked in the greyed out
checkbox, when I installed it as an active node. Do I need to run exsetup
instead?
Thanks,
Kurt

To recover, just configure the appropriate permissions and re-start Setup.

Hi Scott,
We are doing a SCC, and not CCR. I don't see where in SCC documentation
it
says that the cluster account needs to be given domain permissions,
although
it may be somewhere. In fact the cluster itself passed all readiness
checks
in the failover cluster administrator.
Also, now that this is done, how do we recover? I try to reinstall
Exchange, but all the roles are greyed out. I then tried to uninstall it,
but all the roles are also greyed out, and the server thinks it is a
passive
node.
Thanks,
Kurt

Installing the first node of the Active-Passive Exchange cluster failed
with
an error that the computer account for the Exchange virtual server
could
not
be created in the domain. Looking at the event log I see an error that
the
Cluster resource did not have permissions in the domain to create the
virtual
server computer in the Computers OU. The Virtual server was created in
failover cluster manager (this is 2008), but I could not bring it
online.
I
then created an account and as the event log suggested I gave the
cluster
resource full control over the virtual server computer account in AD.
This
allowed me to bring it online. But I have no database, and who knows
what
else was not installed.
Where is it listed that it is a requirement for the cluster resource
computer object to have these permissions? Did I miss something. I
have
read so much documentation. Now I am left with a system in who knows
what
state. Is there any way out of this, other than starting from scratch?
Thanks for any input?
Kurt
