You can verify your installation by moving the cluster group between nodes to see if it fails over properly. The ultimate test of the cluster's failover capability involves shutting down the node that is currently online and bringing it back up after the cluster fails over to the other node.
To verify the configuration of a cluster, either move the online groups, or shut down an active cluster node, as follows:
Use Failover Cluster Management to move all the resource groups from one node to another.
Simulate a failover by shutting down an active cluster node.
To move online groups
On Windows 2012 operating systems, use the Start screen.
If there is more than one resource group, you must repeat this step until all the resource groups are moved.
To shut down an active cluster node
On Windows 2012 operating systems, use the Start screen.
