- In a previous video demonstrated how to add the Hyper-V server into our failover cluster from Hyper-V Manager. And as you can see in our failover cluster, it's still there running and if we switch over to Hyper-V Manager, we can see that the server is also running in Hyper-V Manager. However, we can't do things in Hyper-V Manager because it's being controlled by the failover cluster. For instance, if we right-click on it and choose to shut down... we go ahead and say Shut Down, it says that we cannot do that without possibly losing some data and that's because it's being controlled by the failover cluster manager. Let's go ahead and cancel that. And if we decide we do want to shut it down, we can do that right from the failover cluster manager and choose the Shut Down option. There's other options that we will attempt to do and it will say you cannot do it because it's being controlled in the failover cluster manager, such as moving the Hyper-V Machine.
