cluster/services problem?

alois

hi guyz

i have one problem. am an administrator of server 2003 small domain,
with 1 DC and some member servers. DC is on cluster of 2 physical
servers, there is AD, DNS and exchange server as well.
cluster works as one virtual node, which is switched between
cluster members. the problem is that virtual node is overflowed
of errors (event ID 2114) that exchange has problem with connection to DS.
but i checked everything, even a solutions on ms support pages ,
and everything seems to be all right.
can be this becouse of malfunction of cluster? or something with services?
(some services in case of cluster should start in domain/local account?)

thanx

Hi there.
Are you saying you have two clustered servers which run AD (& DNS etc) with Exchange as well (i.e. the virtual instance is the Exchange services)? If so, this isn't a supported configuration and you'll have lots of problems. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/898634

You can run clustered servers as DC's if you put something like SQL2000/2005 on, though Microsoft DO support this configuration they recommend that the DC's remain seperate, but it's definately a no-go for clustering exchange - the DC's should be seperate servers.

I may have missed your point here, was a late night last night with far too much beer being consumed!
