4.7.8 Setting Up a Cluster User Account
The Cluster Service requires a domain user account under which the
Cluster Service can run. Create the user account before installing the
Cluster Service. Setup requires a user name and password. This user
account should not belong to a user on the domain.
Perform the following steps to set up a cluster user account.
Step 1. Click Start.
Step 2. Point to Programs, then point to Administrative Tools.
Step 3. Click Active Directory Users and Computers.
Step 4. Click the plus sign (+) to expand the domain name (if it is not
already expanded.)
Step 5. Click Users.
Step 6. Right-click Users.
Step 7. Point to New and click User.
Step 8. Type in the cluster name and click Next.
Step 9. Set the password settings to User Cannot Change Password
and Password Never Expires.
Step 10. Click Next, then click Finish to Create This User.
Important: If your company’s security policy does not allow the use of
passwords that never expire, you must renew the password
on each node before password expiration. You must also
update the Cluster Service configuration.
Step 11. Right-click Cluster in the left pane of the Active Directory Users
and Computers snap-in.
Step 12. Select Properties from the context menu.
Step 13. Click Add Members to a Group.
Step 14. Click Administrators and click on OK. This gives the new user
account administrative privileges on this computer.
Step 15. Close the Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in.
