Failover Cluster Properties

Each failover cluster object has a set of properties that define its identity and behavior in the cluster. Applications and resource DLLs manipulate the properties of failover cluster objects to maintain awareness of the failover cluster and to change the failover cluster to suit their needs.

Reference information on failover cluster properties is divided into the following sections based on property scope.

• Common Properties are attributes possessed by all instances of a failover cluster object.
• Private Properties are only possessed by individual object instances.
