• Have you just applied Windows 2008 R2 SP1?

    This is a new node we are trying to add to the existing two node cluster group. I have read somewhere that this issue is a known one and it pops when we try to add more nodes to the existing two node cluster group.

    How many nodes are already in the cluster?

    2 nodes

    How many clustered applications do you currently have installed?

    SQLserver and MSDTC

    Can you supply details of the validation report?

    I am having a hard time to attach the file. The exact error can be seen in the following link. Let me know if you need the complete report.
