Recover a failed node

[Andrea Caldarone]

Hi all,

I've a two node cluster build with Windows 2008 Enterprise (no R2). One
of the two node has crashed, and I need to rebuild it from scratch. Are
there any guide to accomplish this task?

Hi Andrea,

you just need to make sure that the node is completely out of cluster
if required run the forcecleanup command to remove the node out of
cluster.

Syntax should be Cluster node <nodename> /forcecleanup

Once this is done you can rebuild the node and re-add it to the
cluster

Hope this helps
