Get-ClusterQuorum

  • Reference
Module:
FailoverClusters

Gets information about the quorum configuration of a failover cluster.

Syntax

Get-ClusterQuorum
   [[-Cluster] <String>]
   [-InputObject <PSObject>]
   [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Get-ClusterQuorum cmdlet gets information about the quorum configuration of a failover cluster.

The quorum configuration in a failover cluster determines the number of failures that the cluster can sustain. If an additional failure occurs, then the cluster must stop running. The relevant failures in this context are failures of nodes or, in some cases, of a disk witness (which contains a copy of the cluster configuration) or file share witness.

Examples

Example 1

PS C:\> Get-ClusterQuorum
Cluster                    QuorumResource                            QuorumType 
-------                    --------------                            ---------- 
cluster1                   Cluster Disk 1                   NodeAndDiskMajority

This example displays the quorum configuration for the local cluster.

Example 2

PS C:\> Get-ClusterQuorum -Cluster Cluster1
Cluster                    QuorumResource                            QuorumType 
-------                    --------------                            ---------- 
mycluster                                                          NodeMajority

This example displays the quorum configuration for the cluster named Cluster1.
