Re: Setup Failed to Perform Req'd operations on CLuster Nodes

Geoff...

While rebooting Node1, the same thing happened with the network connectivity
loss.

As well, the freshly re-built Node02 (new name) lost connectivity after
adding to the AD domain, only this time I can't get in at all... domain or
local accounts.

I've succumbed to the likliehood that it's an AD / GPO problem now, as I can
PING the box successfully until the Windows startup changes from PREPARING
NETWORK CONNECTIONS to APPLYING COMPUTER SETTINGS, then it dies (DESTINATION
HOST UNREACHABLE).

Thanks again for all of your assistance & Guidance.
