Managing P6000 Cluster Extension resources
You can manage resources by bringing them online and offline, or by deleting them.
Bringing a resource online
Resources are usually brought online automatically when the service or application is brought
online. You might need to move the service or application to the node where you want to bring
the resource online.
When bringing resources online:
• For Windows Server 2008/2008 R2/2012, use the GUI, MMC, or CLI.
• For Server Core or Hyper-V Server, use the CLI or the MMC.
For more information on using this command, see your Microsoft documentation.
