Set-ClusterQuorum |
Configures quorum options for a failover cluster.
Set-ClusterQuorum [-DiskOnly <String>] [-NoWitness] [-DiskWitness <String>] [-FileShareWitness <String>]
[-InputObject <PSObject>] [-Cluster <String>] [<CommonParameters>]
The Set-ClusterQuorum cmdlet configures quorum options for a failover cluster. The quorum configuration in a failover cluster determines the number of failures that the cluster can sustain. If an additional failure occurs, the cluster must stop running. The relevant failures in this context are failures of nodes or, in some cases, of a disk witness (which contains a copy of the cluster configuration) or file share witness.
PS C:\>Set-ClusterQuorum -NodeMajority
Cluster QuorumResource QuorumType
------- -------------- ----------
cluster1 NodeMajority
This example changes the quorum configuration to Node Majority on the local cluster.
PS C:\>Set-ClusterQuorum -NodeAndDiskMajority "Cluster Disk 7"
Cluster QuorumResource QuorumType
------- -------------- ----------
cluster1 Cluster Disk 7 NodeAndDiskMajority
This example changes the quorum configuration to Node and Disk Majority on the local cluster, using the disk resource named Cluster Disk 7 for the disk witness.
PS C:\>Set-ClusterQuorum -NodeAndFileShareMajority \\fileserver\fsw
Cluster QuorumResource QuorumType
------- -------------- ----------
cluster1 File Share Witness NodeAndFileShareMajority
This example changes the quorum configuration to Node and File Share Majority on the local cluster, using the disk resource at \\fileserver\fsw for the file share witness.
Specifies the name of the cluster on which to run this cmdlet.
If the input for this parameter is .
or it is omitted, then the cmdlet runs on the local cluster.
Type: String
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases:
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
Causes the cluster quorum to be set to disk only type. This is not recommended as it creates a single point of failure for the cluster.
Type: String
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases:
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
Specifies the name of the disk resource that the cluster quorum uses as the disk witness. Specifying this parameter sets the cluster quorum to the Node and Disk Majority type.
Type: String
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases: NodeAndDiskMajority
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
Specifies the path of the file share that the cluster quorum uses as the file witness. Specifying this parameter sets the cluster quorum to the Node and File Share Majority type.
Type: String
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases: NodeAndFileShareMajority
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
Specifies the cluster on which to change the quorum type.
Type: PSObject
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases:
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: True (ByValue)
Accept wildcard characters: False
Indicates that the cmdlet sets the cluster quorum to the Node Majority type.
Type: SwitchParameter
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases: NodeMajority
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
