Restarting a cluster node

Hello!

Normally it should be a simple thing to restart a server when it´s part of a cluster. But last time it went very wrong and it took us 90 minutes to get SAP running again.

What we have:

Windows 2003 Cluster:

Node1 holding SAP application

Node2 holding the database

What we did:

moving SAP application from Node1 to Node2

shutting down SAP instances on Node1

restarting Node1

What happened:

Node1 not responding

Cluster group was malfunctioning

group SAP PRD not found

We had to shutdown both servers to initialize both Nodes and get the cluster running again. Today we have to do the same again, but this time please without any problems Did do we something wrong? Do we have to shutdown the SAP instances from Node1 (they were already running on Node2 the last time).

Thanks for any input

i've not good experience with Cluster in Windows.....

If you move a nodo it's done in the first step, or it has to trey more times?.

When you restart the server some servers may be corrupted....
