New-Cluster

New-Cluster

Creates a new failover cluster.

Syntax

Parameter Set: Default
New-Cluster [-Name] <String> [-IgnoreNetwork <StringCollection> ] [-Node <StringCollection> ] [-NoStorage] [-StaticAddress <StringCollection> ] [ <CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description

The New-Cluster cmdlet creates a new failover cluster. Before creating a cluster, the hardware (servers, networks, and storage) must be connected, and the validation tests must be run.

Use Test-Cluster to run the validation tests. The tests will confirm that the hardware and settings are compatible with failover clustering. There are multiple types of tests, including Inventory, System Configuration, Network, Storage, and other types of tests.

Note: This cmdlet cannot be run remotely without Credential Security Service Provider (CredSSP) authentication on the server computer.

Parameters

-IgnoreNetwork<StringCollection>

Specifies one or more networks to ignore when running the cmdlet. Networks with DHCP enabled are always included, but other networks need a static address to be specified using the StaticAddress parameter or should be explicitly ignored with this IgnoreNetwork parameter.

Aliases

false

-Name<String>

Specifies the name of the cluster to create.

Default Value

none

Accept Pipeline Input?

false

false

-NoStorage

Specifies that shared storage is ignored during the cluster creation. The cluster created at the end of the operation will not have shared storage. Shared storage can later be added by piping the ClusterDiskInfo object from the Get-ClusterAvailableDisk cmdlet into the Add-ClusterDisk cmdlet.

Default Value

false

-Node<StringCollection>

Specifies a comma-separated list of cluster node names, or server names, on which to create the cluster. If this parameter is not specified, then a one node cluster is created on the local physical computer.

-StaticAddress<StringCollection>

Specifies one or more static addresses to use when running the cmdlet. Networks with DHCP enabled are always included, but other networks need a static address to be specified using the StaticAddress parameter or should be explicitly ignored with this IgnoreNetwork parameter.

<CommonParameters>

This cmdlet supports the common parameters: -Verbose, -Debug, -ErrorAction, -ErrorVariable, -OutBuffer, and -OutVariable. For more information, see    about_CommonParameters (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkID=113216).

Inputs

The input type is the type of the objects that you can pipe to the cmdlet.

  • None

Outputs

The output type is the type of the objects that the cmdlet emits.

  • Microsoft.FailoverClusters.PowerShell.Cluster

Examples

EXAMPLE 1

This example creates a four-node cluster named cluster1, using default settings for IP addressing.

PS C:\> New-Cluster -Name cluster1 -Node node1,node2,node3,node4

EXAMPLE 2

This example creates a two-node cluster named cluster1. The cluster will not have any clustered storage, or disk resources. Storage can be added using the Get-ClusterAvailableDisk cmdlet with the Add-ClusterDisk cmdlet.

PS C:\> New-Cluster -Name cluster1 -Node node1,node2 -NoStorage

EXAMPLE 3

This example creates a four-node cluster named cluster1 that uses the static IP address 2.0.0.123.

PS C:\> New-Cluster -Name cluster1 -Node node1,node2,node3,node4 -StaticAddress 2.0.0.123

EXAMPLE 4

This example creates a four-node cluster named cluster1 that uses the static IP addresses 2.0.0.123 and 3.0.0.123.

PS C:\> New-Cluster -Name cluster1 -Node node1,node2,node3,node4 -StaticAddress 2.0.0.123,3.0.0.123

EXAMPLE 5

This example creates a four-node cluster named cluster1. The cluster uses default settings for IP addressing, and does not use the network 2.0.0.0/8.

PS C:\> New-Cluster -Name cluster1 -Node node1,node2,node3,node4 -IgnoreNetwork 2.0.0.0/8

EXAMPLE 6

This example creates a four-node cluster named cluster1. The cluster uses the static IP address 2.0.0.123, and does not use the network 3.0.0.0/8.

PS C:\> New-Cluster -Name cluster1 -Node node1,node2,node3,node4 -StaticAddress 2.0.0.123 -IgnoreNetwork 3.0.0.0/8
