Cluster validation and creation
This section describes the steps to complete cluster validation and cluster creation. The validation
process finds hardware or configuration issues before a failover cluster can go into production. The
cluster validation wizard determines if the current hardware and software configuration meets the
supported configuration guidelines.
Validating clusters
1. To open the Failover Cluster Manager, open the Server Manager window, and select Failover
Cluster Manager from the Tools menu.
