The NetBIOS name "node1.test.com" is already in use in the network


os: windows server 2008 r2 enterprise

i'm attempting create new cluster using 'new-cluster" cmdlet.  i'm receiving following error.

new-cluster : netbios name 'node1.test.com' in use in network.

i able create 2 node cluster no problems using same pwershell script in test "vm" environment.  created private network own domain controller, san server using ms iscsi target, , 2 nodes.  worked great.  created cluster , specified node1.  used "add-clusternode" add node2.

now i'm trying on our company domain.  don't have domain permissions did in test environment.  not sure if problem.  registered 2 nodes on domain, set shared volumes, ran cluster validation, did in test environment.  i'm running powershell script node1, same initial node i'm trying add cluster.

the two nodes joined to the domain, expect netbios names registered well.  why checking @ point?

 

thanks help!!!!

 

i found problem!  name of cluster longer netbios limit.  truncated , result same name of node1.
