New Resource Types Are Only Available on Windows Server 2003 Nodes in Mixed-Version Clusters (813555)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Web Edition
- Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Standard Edition
- Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Enterprise Edition
- Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Datacenter Edition
- Microsoft Windows Server 2003, 64-Bit Enterprise Edition
- Microsoft Windows Server 2003, 64-Bit Datacenter Edition
SYMPTOMSWhen you perform a rolling upgrade, there is no warning that
the new resource types cannot be failed over to other, non-upgraded nodes. For
example, when you perform a rolling upgrade from Microsoft Windows 2000 to
Windows Server 2003 and do not upgrade all the nodes in the cluster, any new
resource types that are created on the new node are not available for the
non-upgraded (down-level) nodes.CAUSEThis behavior occurs because new resource types cannot
failover on to down-level nodes.
