Interpreting the Cluster Log

Log Summary of Cluster Formation

When the Cluster service forms a cluster, it does the following:

Starts the Resource Monitor, the manager of the cluster's resources.
Brings the Quorum resource online.
Updates local copies of the cluster database.
Recreates groups and resources.
Configures the networks, recreates network and interface objects, registers the networks and interfaces with cluster transport, and then brings them online.
Brings all resources online.
Takes a checkpoint of the cluster database.

And the cluster is formed. Resources continue to be brought online after the cluster formation is reported complete.
