Re: Cluster Failover history

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

I would recommend looking into the functionality of the Cluster logs and the
Event logs. Monitoring solutions (like MOM / SCOM) are very also worthwhile
to investigate...

You didn't mention OS Version, but W2K and up has cluster logging enabled by
default already. There are different levels of detail, log size, etc...more
on the cluster logging options here:

Hi,

can anyone help me find a good resource on how to trace Cluster failover
information.

tips like
1. how to know when the failover occured
2. how to know from which node the failover transfered and from where
3. how to know the cause of the failover.

thanks in advance.
