Test-Cluster Resource Failure

Module:
failoverclusters
Simulates a failure of a cluster resource.

Syntax 

Test-ClusterResourceFailure
    [[-Name] <String>]
    [-InputObject <PSObject>]
    [-Cluster <String>]
    [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Test-ClusterResourceFailure cmdlet simulates a failure of a cluster resource.

Based on the failover and failback policies, when this cmdlet runs, the Cluster service moves the clustered role, or resource group, and attempts to bring the clustered resource online. This cmdlet can be used to simulate what actions the Cluster service will take when a resource fails.

Examples

Example 1: Simulate a failure 

PS C:\> Test-ClusterResourceFailure -Name "Cluster Disk 4"
Name                State               Group               ResourceType 
----                -----               -----               ------------ 
Cluster Disk 4      Failed              cluster12FS         Physical Disk
