Hello,
You can't, but they can retry later from Word & co.
You should always communicate before making a manual failover

Hi Matt,
I've tested file share and works fine... and quick too... however here is
one thing I'd like to do.
As a test, I created some scripts to emulate user updates while I manually
forced a cluster move\failover. I did this whilst mapped to the share as a
user would be.
During the failover I get a message 'Delayed Write Failed'. I fully
understand the reason but I want this to be transparent to the users who are
mapped to this share as upon 'return' of the server they will just continue
to work away again.
Any ideas on how to acheive this as these 'Delayed Write Failed' will make
users and execs siren the alarm bells whenever a failover occurs during a
normal BAU day??
Cheers,
GL

Hello,
How do you do your sync ? robocopy ? do you preserve NTFS ACL security ?
You will have to declare all shares (cluster resources in this case, not
simple share)
Users are in AD I guess ? ;)
