Majority Node Set resource type

You use the Majority Node Set resource type to manage cluster configuration data that may or may not be on a cluster storage device. For example, the Majority Node Set resource type can manage cluster configuration data that is actually stored on multiple nodes in a cluster at the same physical location or in a geographically dispersed cluster. The Majority Node Set resource ensures that the cluster configuration data is kept consistent across the different nodes. In contrast, in a single quorum device server cluster, the quorum resource maintains the definitive copy of the cluster configuration data on the cluster storage device.

Important

  • Only one Majority Node Set resource can exist in a server cluster.

  • Do not use the net use command to connect to the share containing the cluster database files (%systemroot%\Cluster\MNS.%ResourceGUID%$\%ResourceGUID%$\MSCS) in a majority node set server cluster. Otherwise, the Majority Node Set resource (the quorum resource) may be unable to connect to the share and may fail to come online.
