    OK, but do you have a dedicated heartbeat network for the cluster servers?

    You no longer need to have a dedicated heartbeat network, you don't push the heartbeat traffic through a specific Network, the networks aren't used in the same way they were in Windows 2003.

    You do however, need multiple redundant networks.

    Ah, OK. The last cluster I worked with was a Server 2003 cluster, and the last one I built (4'ish years back) was for Hyper-V 2008 R2 (which means I think the dedicated network was for Live migrations of VMs)

    I think it's time for me to setup my test cluster at home and get familiar with it again...
