    A number of things could cause this, and you'll need to review your Event logs to see what failed. A few things to check, make sure your DTC service and drives are all available to your SQL Server which should be listed under Services and Applications. If that looks good then the Event Logs or possibly the SQL Server logs would be the next place to check. Unfortunately this is a rather high level error which could mean lots of things.

    Take care,

  • Hello Sam,

    Hello Sam,

    Thanks a lot for reply. My next question is , IS DTC service mandatory to install on both the nodes ? Because I found that DTC service is not installed on any of this machine.

    Which other resources in the group failed to come online, what errors do you see in the windows application log?
