unable to create object Cluster 2022 on active directory

We have a problem creating the Cluster object on our Active Directory. When I try to create the cluster object in the AD, it fails to create. I have created two VMs, one on 2012R2 and one on 2022. The cluster on 2012R2 works very well, but the one on 2022 always fails.

I am using the same organizational unit and the same service account. I have made the account a domain admin, added full control rights on the OU, but the problem persists. The AD is at the 2016 functional level, as well as the forest.

    Hello,

    Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.

    Based on my understanding of this problem, you can try to add the permissions of Create Computer objects and Read All Properties to the domain user in the computer account container to see if this can solve the problem.

    Reference Links:

    I hope the information above is helpful.

    Best regards

    Sorry but my user account to forming the cluster is Domains admin.

    It's works with server 2012R2 but no with Server 2022.

    I use the same OU and the same account

    Thanks, but when I launch the PowerShell command to create a computer in the OU, it works. I noticed that some people have the same issues with HyperV 2019 and 2022, but not with HyperV 2012R2. Perhaps there is a parameter in Active Directory that differs for these OS versions.
