i have node1 as 192.168.5.10 and node2 as 192.168.5.11

New-Cluster -Name clustername -Node ("node1","node2") –StaticAddress "192.168.5.0" -NoStorage -ManagementPointNetworkType Singleton

Answer 1

Hi,

1.Generally, we can use the following command to create the cluster:

New-Cluster -Name clustername -Node node1,node2 -StaticAddress "x.x.x.x" -NoStorage

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/failoverclusters/new-cluster?view=win10-ps

I didn't find the parameter "ManagementPointNetworkType", and try to test in Powershell with "Tab" also not appear with it. So you may not add the -ManagementPointNetworkType.

2.Besides, it's not recommended to use the ending .0 and .255 to be static IP addresses. You may definite the cluster IP addresses with another one.

Thanks for your time!
Best Regards,
Anne
