SYMPTOMS

If you attempt to start the cluster service for Microsoft Cluster Server, you may observe one or more of the following errors:
1715 The server is not listening.
-or-
1753 There are no more endpoints available from the endpoint mapper.
-or-
1740 The endpoint is a duplicate.

CAUSE

These error messages may occur as a result of network or network adapter related problems. If the cluster service fails, it will attempt to restart. However, if the network adapter or network fails and none is available to the cluster service, the cluster service may not restart.

RESOLUTION

Check network connections and network devices for proper functionality. You may need to reset or replace related hardware or restart the computer that experiences the errors.
