SQL Server Forum / Other Technologies / Clustering / June 2006MSDTC Cluster deployment(request for documentation): What am I doing wrong?
Hi guys, what am I doing wrong with this? Please note these are all problems from 'clean installs'. (INTRO/WHAT I DID/ERROR MESSAGES) INTRO: ====== I have Compaq Proliant DL380 G4 with MGSA 500 G2 cluster. My O/S is Windows 2003 64-bit R2. My compaq SmartStart is version 7.40. Documentation I used are: Doc1(overall document): http://msmvps.com/blogs/clustering/archive/2004/10/25/16672.aspx Doc2(network DTC): http://support.microsoft.com/kb/817064 Doc3(cluster a DTC): http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;301600 WHAT I DID: ========== Attempt 1: I used smartstart to install the O/S. I patched it. network DTC was added (as per Doc2) changed DTC log to 40 mb (as per Doc1) Rebooted installed DTC (as per Doc3) Attempt 2: I used smartstart to install the O/S. I patched it. network DTC was added (as per Doc2) changed DTC log to 40 mb (as per Doc1) Rebooted installed DTC (as per Doc3) Attempt 3: I used smartstart to install the O/S. I patched it. (execute) msdtc -uninstall clear MSDTC registry: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Services\ & HKLM\SYSTEM\CCS\ & HKCR\CID installed DTC (as per Doc3) Attempt n: I've tried various other combinations as exploratory tests as well. ERROR MESSAGES: ================ Event Type: Error Event Source: MSDTC Client Event Category: MSDTC Proxy MS DTC cannot start because it failed to initialize the log file for its first usage after a cluster install. Please try to restart MS DTC. If the problem persists please contact Microsoft Product Support. Error Specifics: d:\srvrtm\com\complus\dtc\dtc\adme\uiname.cpp:8012, Pid: 3428 No Callstack, CmdLine: "C:\WINDOWS\cluster\resrcmon.exe" -e 916 -m 928 -p 3192 ================= Event Source: MSDTC Client Event Category: Cluster Event ID: 4148 The MS DTC service was started before the cluster service on this cluster node. This service will now be stopped. If MSDTC has been configured to run on a cluster, the MS DTC resource will be brought online by the cluster service when it starts. Error Specifics: d:\srvrtm\com\complus\dtc\shared\mtxclu\mtxclusetuphelper.cpp:932, Pid: 3428, CmdLine: "C:\WINDOWS\cluster\resrcmon.exe" -e 916 -m 928 -p 3192 ================== So I take it your D: drive is a shared disk for the cluster?

It was probably the Q: quorum drive before I renamed it... PRIOR to doing the cluster admin changes..

I fixed MSDTC error message like this: >From the services Distributed Transaction Coordinator service startup type was AUTOMATIC. You always should change cluster managed recourse service startup type to MANUAL. This is all. > That is a question you really need to answer :) Look at your clustered MSDTC > resource.

My D: was a CD rom which was quickly re-assigned to Z: seconds after it was first installed. My quorum is a Q: drive. I've been through oodles of documentation and have printed off reams of documentation - nothing seems to have worked. ========================================= >I had the same problem 3 days ago.

Thank you, Rodney R. Fournier [MVP]!! Redstain ========================================== > Why would it say D: drive?

HP throws a partation on your disk and slaps some diagnostic stuff on it and then trys to hide it. later you come along looking at 'disks' and find a D: you never planned on. the rollup 'clues in 2003 to what HP did' and your system can deal with C:, D:, Q:, and Z: before the rollup it thought d was c, ect. Man I love HP.... ;-P > I don't know why, but that rollup patch worked; but it did!! > http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=896729 [quoted text clipped - 125 lines] > >>> >>> 3192 > >>> >>> ================== |
