System tab for clusters

Based on the type of cluster provider and the version of cluster providers, not all properties are available at

all times. If a property does not have a value, the property does not appear on this page. This page is for

all clusters except for MSCS clusters. They are monitored using Cluster Monitor. See “Cluster Monitor” for

more information.

Health Status

Each link under Health Status links to the System Page of a cluster member. The cluster status is a

combination of the cluster member statuses included in the cluster. The most critical status is displayed.

Identification

• Address The IP address of the cluster.

• Preferred System Name The name shown for the system. When available, it defaults to the host

name from DNS. You can override this through the Edit System Properties link under the Tools &

Links tab.

• Network Name The fully qualified DNS name, if available. Reverse DNS lookups by IP address

must be enabled and match a forward lookup.
