I have the following steps to repair the cluster node, Can some please verify if I am using the right steps...
1. manual failover the node b to node A
2. set the possible owner to node A
3.1.Launch the SQL Server Setup program (setup.exe) from SQL Server 2008 installation media.
2.After prerequisites and system verification, the Setup program will display the SQL Server Installation Center page.
3.Click Maintenance in the left-hand navigation area, and then click Repair to start the repair operation.
4.Setup support rule and file routines will run to ensure that your system has prerequisites installed and that the computer passes Setup validation rules. Click OK or Install to continue.
5.On the Select Instance page, select the instance to repair, and then click Next to continue.
6.The repair rules will run to validate the operation. To continue, click Next.
7.The Ready to Repair page indicates that the operation is ready to proceed. To continue, click Repair.
8.The Repair Progress page shows the status of the repair operation. The Complete page indicates that the operation is finished.
Please let me know if I am missing any steps.

why are you repairing, you were supposed to be adding a node on node b and selecting the existing clustered default instance?
