Re: cluster service is requesting a bus reset for device

Not sure what you're asking...you can't adjust the quorum arbitration
process if that's what you're getting at. You can adjust the network
heartbeats if you've got 2003 SP2 or SP1 with hotfix 921181 applied. See the
following for more details:

Is there anyway you can force the process or set the time limits?

1209 events occur when the cluster node is attempting to forcefully take
over the quorum device. This typically happens when the node that does
not
own the quorum loses network connectivity to the node that does own the
quorum device. This can also occur if you are attempting to start
cluster
services on both nodes at the same time. These resets are part of the
normal
quorum arbitration process.

Hope this helps.

There are no network errors before the error 1209. However I have
notice
that DTC cannot start. It gives a event id: 1067 The distributed
transaction
coordinator service terminated unexpectedly.

In certain circumstances this is normal behaviour of a cluster,
Example

- cluster node does not own the Quorum
- cluster node loses network connectivity with the node who owns the
Quorum
- cluster node tries to *grab* the Quorum using a Bus Reset
- if the other node, owning the Quorum, is up and running then the
node
trying will loose
- cannot grab Quorum, cannot reach over network -> service will
terminate

Perfectly normal behaviour in some circumstances

Do you see "lost network connectivity" messages before the bus reset
?
