Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. The domain contains four member

servers named Server1, Server2, Servers, and Server4. All servers run Windows Server 2012 R2.

Server1 and Server2 are located in a site named Site1. Server3 and Server4 are located in a site named Site2. The servers are configured as nodes in a failover cluster named Cluster1. Cluster1 is configured to use the Node Majority quorum configuration. You need to ensure that Server1 is the only server in Site1 that can vote to maintain quorum.

What should you run from Windows PowerShell? To answer, drag the appropriate commands to the correct location. Each command may be used once, more than once, or not at all. You may need to drag the split bar between panes or scroll to view content.

Answer:

Explanation:

We remove Server2 from quorum vote by setting it’s NodeWeight to 0.

NodeWeight settings are used during quorum voting to support disaster recovery and multi-subnet scenarios for AlwaysOn Availability Groups and SQL Server Failover Cluster Instances.

Example (Powershell)

The following example changes the NodeWeight setting to remove the quorum vote for the “AlwaysOnSrv1” node.

Import-Module FailoverClusters

$node = “AlwaysOnSrv1”

(Get-ClusterNode $node).NodeWeight = 0
