Interpreting the Cluster Log

Resource DLL Is Missing

A support engineer trying to start the Cluster service on a Windows NT 4.0 cluster receives the message, "Could not start the Cluster Server service on [server name] Error 127: The specified procedure could not be found."

he problem is an error in loading Clusres.dll, which manages the resource in question. As a result, the support engineer is not able to create a resource to manage the service and so cannot start it:
