Cause

While running through the FSAClusterConfiguration, we see that the ClusterGroup was not added to the FSAResourceGroups. Enterprise Vault is seeing it as clustered, but 0 for members. When it compares the node name vs cluster name, it fails.

Resolution

Run through the  FSAClusterConfiguration wizard & add the FileServer Cluster name to the ClusterGroup. This should let Enterprise Vault see members of the cluster, whereby collections will run through successfully.

 

 

Issue/Introduction

Upon running collections for a file server part of a cluster, there is no "start & end scan time" to be seen.
