Cluster failover not happening..plse help

  • Did someone rename a service account ???

    In that case, drop the login from sqlserver and add it again.

    Sqlserver stores Windows account by its Windows "guid", so dropping an account and creating a new one with the same name will not work.

    Can you reboot the nodes ?

  • Did someone rename a service account :No..but as part of server hardening some thing might have changed( reverted back the changes)

    In that case, drop the login from sqlserver and add it again

    Sqlserver stores Windows account by its Windows "guid", so dropping an account and creating a new one with the same name will not work.

    I have aleardy droped and recreated the cluster account.. but I can not drop the cluster admin login from OS(since this is a cluster admin a\c)

    But any way I have given SA rights to builtin\administrators so all the local admin to the box should have access to sql server.

    Can you reboot the nodes ? yes I can.

  • on a slightly different note ... the sequence of events described here seems like a perfect justification for a test cluster - whether it be physical or virtual. 😀

  • This is not a test cluster, a new build server, but can test anything at the moment.

  • Hi All

    Finaly this has been resolved. While the hardening og the server the sql service a\c SPN was broken.;). Thanks very much for all who gave their advices.:)

  • thank you for the feedback.

    Glad to see setspn solved your issue.

  • Hi

    I am having same problem, and I am not able to start SQL Server service to check or grant cluster account permission.

    How did you get it fixed? My production server is down now and how do I get if fixed?

  • OK, I was able to manually start the sql service and add the cluster account back. It's working now. Thanks!
