Change Windows Failover Cluster Owner Using Powershell

Viewed 1181

I'm currently trying to move ownership from one node in a Windows Failover Cluster to another. The nodes are in different subnets and different Active Directory sites.

Prior to issuing the move command, clustering commandlets work properly (i.e. Get-Cluster $ClusterName).

After issuing the failover command, clustering commandlets and all time out:

Move-ClusterGroup -Cluster $ClusterName -Name "Cluster Group"`

I've verified that the cluster name properly resolves in DNS and flushed DNS locally, but the problem still persists. After a few minutes, it starts working again.

Is this being blocked by Active Directory replication, and if so, is the preferred method of forcing a sync to use REPADMIN?
