Error Code details
V-16-15-235
Severity: Error 
Component: Cluster Server 
Message:
Failed to connect to the cluster. Error reason: %s
Description:

This error occurs when you try to connect to a cluster using the Cluster Configuration Wizard (VCW). The possible causes are:
 

  • The cluster may not be in the RUNNING state.
     
  • In case of single sign on authentication, the user who launched VCW might not have the appropriate privileges.
     
  • In case of VCS authentication, the user credentials provided might be incorrect.

 

To run VCW, you must have:
 

  • Local Administrator privileges on the system where you run the wizard. The user account must be a domain user account.
     
  • Administrative access to all systems selected for cluster operations. Add the domain user account to the local Administrator group of each system.

  • Before you run VCW, check the cluster connectivity through the HA command line interface (using the haclus -display command) or through the JavaGUI.
     
  • Check whether the HAD service is running. Use the following commands:

    • sc query HAD

      Sample output is as follows:
