Hello,

I am trying to set up Cluster-Aware Updating, but am running into errors.

I run the command:

Add-CauClusterRole -Clustername BS-CL1 -DaysOfWeek Monday -IntervalWeeks 3 -MaxFailedNodes 1 -MaxRetriesPerNode 3 -RequireAllNodesOnline -EnableFirewallRules -Force

Add-CauClusterRole : Validation failed for adding CAU cluster role.
At line:1 char:1
+ Add-CauClusterRole -Clustername BS-CL1 -DaysOfWeek Monday -IntervalWe ...
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    + CategoryInfo          : InvalidOperation: (:) [Add-CauClusterRole], ClusterUpdateException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : ClusterNodeValidationError,Microsoft.ClusterAwareUpdating.Commands.AddCauClusterRoleCommand

If I use the Cluster-Aware Updating tool and run the Analyze cluster updating readiness I get another error There was an error analyzing cluster updating readiness.

Any help would be appreciated.
