Summary

In this chapter, we examined some of the tasks involved in working with the Windows Server 2008 Failover Cluster. We first looked at identifying the WMI classes we could use to manage the Windows Server 2008 Failover Cluster. Next we looked at reporting the current cluster configuration, and then moved on to querying node configuration. The next step was to examine a very powerful script that allows multiple class queries and will write the results to a text file. We then moved on to adding nodes to the cluster and evicting nodes from the cluster. We concluded this chapter by developing a script that can remove the cluster.
