All VM's locked up in Server 2012 Cluster!

hi,

about 2 hours ago evening, lost communication 20 vm's on 8 node cluster , took 25 minutes recover! fibre channel shared storage being used throughout cluster through 2 redundant routes each node. host os still working fine. appreciate points storage going down don't think had, there no errors on either fc switch , no error on either storage device. using server 2012 on hp dl360's.

the get-clusterlog returns error @ time went down:

any appreciated.

hi,

please give more information hyper-v cluster configuration.

which kind of quorum configurations select cluster?

the quorum configuration in failover cluster determines number of failures cluster can sustain. if additional failure occurs, cluster must stop running.

check event viewer , post related event logs further troubleshooting.

for more information please refer following ms articles:
