If you are using a static IP Address for the virtual machine, a script would need to be manually run to change the IP Address to the local site it is on.

Instead of waiting for the timeout periods, a forced replication and TTL clearing on the client side would allow them to connect again. Doing this will not have the need to change the IP Address of the virtual machine as it will always remain the same.

However, stretching a VLAN not a recommendation by Microsoft is not always easy to do and the Networking Group within your company may not want to do this for various reasons. Another consideration is implementing a network device on the network that has a third IP Address that clients connect to and it holds that actual IP Address of the virtual machine so it will route clients appropriately.

For example:. In the above example, we have a network device that has the IP Address of the virtual machine as Your Networking Group would need to involved with this and need to control it.

The chances of them not doing it is something to also consider if it can even done within your network. We talked about virtual machines, but what about other resources, say, a file server?

Meaning, we can depend on this "or" that. In the case of the scenario above, your Network Name could be dependent on 1. To go a step further for the stretch scenario, we have two parameters that can be used. By manipulating these parameters, you will have quicker connection times by a client. I would run the commands:. There is more I could go into here with this subject but need to signoff for now. I hope that this gives you some basics to consider when designing your Clusters while thinking of the networking aspects of it.

In the Cluster Name box, enter the name that you want to use to administer the cluster. Before you do, review the following information:.

If the server does not have a network adapter that is configured to use DHCP, you must configure one or more static IP addresses for the failover cluster.

Select the check box next to each network that you want to use for cluster management. Select the Address field next to a selected network, and then enter the IP address that you want to assign to the cluster.

If you're using Windows Server , you have the option to use a distributed network name for the cluster. A distributed network name uses the IP addresses of the member servers instead of requiring a dedicated IP address for the cluster. By default, Windows uses a distributed network name if it detects that you're creating the cluster in Azure so you don't have to create an internal load balancer for the cluster , or a normal static or IP address if you're running on-premises.

For more info, see Distributed Network Name. On the Confirmation page, review the settings. By default, the Add all eligible storage to the cluster check box is selected.

Clear this check box if you want to do either of the following:. On the Summary page, confirm that the failover cluster was successfully created. If there were any warnings or errors, view the summary output or select View Report to view the full report.

Select Finish. To confirm that the cluster was created, verify that the cluster name is listed under Failover Cluster Manager in the navigation tree. You can expand the cluster name, and then select items under Nodes , Storage or Networks to view the associated resources. Realize that it may take some time for the cluster name to successfully replicate in DNS.

After successful DNS registration and replication, if you select All Servers in Server Manager, the cluster name should be listed as a server with a Manageability status of Online.

After the cluster is created, you can do things such as verify cluster quorum configuration, and optionally, create Cluster Shared Volumes CSV. Use Server Manager or Windows PowerShell to install the role or feature that is required for a clustered role on each failover cluster node. For example, if you want to create a clustered file server, install the File Server role on all cluster nodes. The following table shows the clustered roles that you can configure in the High Availability Wizard and the associated server role or feature that you must install as a prerequisite.

To verify that the clustered role was created, in the Roles pane, make sure that the role has a status of Running. The Roles pane also indicates the owner node. To test failover, right-click the role, point to Move , and then select Select Node. In the Owner Node column, verify that the owner node changed. The following Windows PowerShell cmdlets perform the same functions as the preceding procedures in this topic.

Enter each cmdlet on a single line, even though they may appear word-wrapped across several lines because of formatting constraints. The following example runs all cluster validation tests on computers that are named Server1 and Server2. The Test-Cluster cmdlet outputs the results to a log file in the current working directory.
