pm | AD-less Cluster Bootstrapping Doesn't Work (31st Jul 17 at 10:09am UTC) AD-less Cluster Bootstrapping Doesn't Work | Quote Reply | Hello We have a Server 2012 R2 Cluster running our production VMs, and were looking at removing the need for our last physical DC. We have two other DCs running as VMs. However testing whether the cluster would start without any DCs running completely failed.
I even tested this is a completely new testlab environment and had exactly the same result. The cluster wouldn't start unless there was a DC running.
So what's going if all of Microsoft's documentations seems to suggest that this is no longer a requirement due to the addition of AD-less Cluster Bootstrapping ? Was it added in Server 2012 and then removed in R2, doesn't make sense? Thank you !!
