Re: Clstr Servce wont start after changing logon account

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Well for starters, you clustered a DC.

Make sure the account also has these rights:

- Debug programs
- Impersonate a client after authentication
- Manage auditing and security log

I recently decided to make some changes to increase security. One of those
changes was to be able to change the domain administrator password without
having to update the account log on information in the services applet. I
created a new account. Let's just call it Prime. After creting the account
and changing the log on information in the services panel, I can not
longer
start the cluster service. As soon as I click start, i get this error:

Could not start the cluster service on local computer. Error 1053: The
service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely
fashion"

As printed in Microsoft article 269229 I gave Prime the following rights
locally on the 2 nodes that are attached to the cluster:
* Act as part of the operating system
. Adjust memory quotas for a process
. Back up files and directories
. Increase scheduling priorities
. Log on as a service
. Restore files and directories


I also added Prime to all administrative domain groups (enterprise admins,
domain admins, etc)

Im not sure how to make sure that Prime is in the local administrators
group
on a domain controller. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong here?
Thanks
!!
