Troubleshooting Your Cluster
Replacing a Failed Quorum Server System
Chapter 8334
The command will output an error message if the specified nodes
cannot communicate with the quorum server.
NOTE While the old quorum server is down and the new one is being set up:
• The cmquerycl, cmcheckconf and cmapplyconf commands will not
work
• The cmruncl, cmhaltcl, cmrunnode, and cmhaltnode commands will
not work
• If there is a node or network failure that creates a 50-50 membership
split, the quorum server will not be available as a tie-breaker, and
the cluster will fail.
WARNING Make sure that the old system does not re-join the network with
the old IP address.
