Task 1: Evict Node_B from the Cluster
Task 1: Evict Node_B from the Cluster
To evict Node_B from the cluster:
1.Ensure that the cluster resources failed over to Node_A, the working node. This includes the quorum disk and any shared disks.
2.If any of the data that failed over from Node_B to Node_A is corrupt, use the NetWorker software to recover the data.
Note: You may need to shut down some cluster resources that depend on this data.
3.From the Cluster Administrator on Node_A, evict Node_B from the cluster.
4.Shut down Node_B if it is still running and disconnect it from the cluster.
5.Fix or replace the damaged hardware on Node_B, if necessary.
6.Reconnect Node_B to the cluster.
Task 2: Reinstall Windows NT 4.0 and MSCS on Node_B
To reinstall Windows NT and MSCS on Node_B:
1. | Install the Windows NT 4.0 Server Enterprise Edition. |
2. | Apply Windows NT 4.0 service pack 3. |
3. | Install the MSCS software. |
4. | If the node had a local tape drive, install the device driver. |
5. | Install the latest Windows NT 4.0 service pack. |
6. | Join Node_B to the cluster with Node_A. |
7. | Assign the same drive letters that were previously assigned to the disk |
6 | volumes. |
|
Important: Any local drive letters you assign should not conflict with the drive letters assigned to any of the shared disks.
