  Hi,

  I have installed SQLServer 2019, and Windows Server Failover Cluster feature.

  I want to create a AO Availability Group. I start the create wizard, and in the "Specify availability group options" page the WSFC cluster type is missing. I only can choose EXTERNAL or NONE. Is there something I am forgetting?

  From what i remember, the wizard should have this option and create the failover cluster.

  ok i found a possible solution (also selfnote to mysefl in the future  :):

  I guess you have to create a cluster and then Disable AlwaysOn feature in SQLServer Configuration Manager and enable it again.
