After you answer a question in this section, you will NOT be able to return to it. As a result, these questions will not appear in the review screen.

You have a failover cluster named Cluster1 that hosts an application named App1.

The General tab in App1 Properties is shown in the General exhibit. (Click the General tab.)

The Failover tab in App1 Properties is shown in the Failover exhibit. (Click the Failover tab.)

Server1 shuts down unexpectedly.

You need to ensure that when you start Server1, App1 continues to run on Server2.

Solution: From the General settings, you move Server2 up.

Does this meet the goal?

AYes

BNo

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

Server1 and Server2 are both unticked so the order they are listed in has no effect on whether the cluster will fail back.

Wait, are we sure that’s the right solution? Seems off.

Moving Server2 up won't help if Server1 goes down.

No way, that won't keep App1 running on Server2.

Just a quick fact: failover clusters need proper priority settings.

I’m leaning towards "No" because I think there are specific failover settings that need to be adjusted, not just the server order.

I remember reading that just changing the order might not guarantee that the application stays on Server2. It seems like there could be other configurations needed.

This reminds me of a practice question where we had to prioritize nodes in a failover cluster. I feel like there might be more steps involved here.

I think moving Server2 up in the General settings might help, but I'm not entirely sure if that's enough to keep App1 running on Server2.

I've got a good feeling about this one. The key is to focus on the Failover tab and make sure the settings there are configured correctly to handle the failover scenario. Moving Server2 up in the General tab seems like a reasonable first step, but I'll need to verify if that's the complete solution.

Based on the information provided, I think the solution of moving Server2 up in the General settings might not be enough to ensure that App1 continues to run on Server2 when Server1 shuts down. I'll need to double-check the Failover tab settings to see if there's a more appropriate solution.

I'm a bit confused by the wording of the question. Does "move Server2 up" mean changing the order of the preferred owners, or is there something else I'm missing?

Okay, let me think this through step-by-step. The question is asking about a failover cluster, so I'll need to focus on the Failover tab settings to see if moving Server2 up is the right approach.

Hmm, this looks like a tricky one. I'll need to carefully review the information provided and the proposed solution to determine if it meets the goal.

Hold up, are we sure the goal is to just keep App1 running on Server2? What if we want to move it back to Server1 once it's back online? This solution might not cover all the bases.

Haha, this question is like a game of 'Spot the Trick'. I bet the real solution is something totally unexpected, like configuring a unicorn to take over Server1's role or something.

Hmm, I'm not so sure about that. Shouldn't we be looking at the Failover tab settings instead? Seems like that's where the failover configuration is managed.
