HP EVA Cluster Extension Software Installation Guide (5697-2446, July 2013)

NOTE: If cluster installation fails with the message Could not get the system drive
for the cluster node... or Setup was unable to run the installation in
remote machine..., confirm that the WMI service is running. To use the HP EVA Cluster
Extension cluster-wide installation feature, the WMI service must be running.
On Windows Server 2012, installation of the CLX product registers the CLX resource type, and
registration of resource type copies the CLX resource DLL files clxevamscs.dll and
clxevavmmscs.dll to the %SystemDrive%\Windows\Cluster folder on all the cluster
nodes. Uninstallation of CLX does not remove these files, instead they are renamed. After the
uninstallation is complete, the files must be manually removed.
When you complete the installation of the CLX product on all the cluster nodes, the cluster service
must be restarted on all the cluster nodes. This must be done if any CLX resource (Cluster Extension
EVA or Cluster Extension EVA for VM Management) exists in the cluster after you have completed
the uninstallation of the CLX product on all the cluster nodes.
On Windows Server 2012 Server Core, apart from failover cluster, the feature
RSAT-Clustering-PowerShell having the display name Failover Cluster Module for Windows
PowerShell must be installed. This feature is required by the CLX installer for registration and
un-registration of CLX resources during the installation.
If you are installing CLX product on a cluster that contains both Server Core and Non-Server Core
nodes, then you must install the CLX product from the Non-Server Core cluster node.
