DYNAMIC QUORUM


• In Windows Server 2008 R2, quorum majority is fixed, based on the initial cluster configuration

• In Windows Server 2012 (and later), cluster quorum majority is determined by the set of nodes that are active members of the cluster at a given time

• This new feature is called Dynamic Quorum, and it is enabled for all clusters by default

Dynamic Quorum


• Cluster dynamically manages vote assignment to nodes, based on the state of each node– When a node shuts down or crashes, the node loses its

quorum vote– When a node rejoins the cluster, it regains its quorum vote

• By adjusting the assignment of quorum votes, the cluster can dynamically increase or decrease the number of quorum votes required to keep running

Dynamic Quorum


• By dynamically adjusting the quorum majority requirement, a cluster can sustain sequential node shutdowns to a single node– This is referred to as a “Last Man Standing”

scenario

Dynamic Quorum


• Does not allow a cluster to sustain a simultaneous failure of majority of voting members– To continue running, the cluster must always

maintain quorum after a node shutdown or failure

• If you manually remove a node’s vote, the cluster does not dynamically add the vote back

Use Get-ClusterNode to verify DynamicWeight property

• Works with most DAGs– Third-party replication DAGs not tested

• All internal testing has it enabled• Office 365 servers use it• Exchange is not dynamic quorum-

aware• Does not change quorum

requirements

Dynamic Quorum


• Cluster team guidance:– Generally increases the availability of the cluster– Enabled by default, strongly recommended to leave

enabled– Allows the cluster to continue running in failure scenarios

that are not possible when this option is disabled

• Exchange team guidance:– Leave it enabled for majority of DAG members– In some cases where a Windows 2008 R2 DAG would have

lost quorum, a Windows 2012 DAG can maintain quorum– Don’t factor it into availability plans

DATABASE AVAILABILITY GROUP MEMBER MAINTENANCE


• Exchange 2010 guidance– Run StartDagServerMaintenance.ps1– Perform the maintenance (e.g., install the SP or UR)– Run StopDagServerMaintenance.ps1– Optionally rebalance the DAG by running

RedistributeActiveDatabases.ps1

• Exchange 2013 guidance different due to architectural changes– http://aka.ms/DAG2013MM
