Error: Cluster Resource Dependency Can Not Be Found (182193)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows NT Server, Enterprise Edition
This article was previously published under Q182193 SYMPTOMS
When you try to select the "Use Network Name as Computer Name" check box
for a resource, you may receive the following error:
The Cluster resource dependency can not be found.
This error may be generated even if your resource depends on a resource,
that in turn depends on a network name resource.
For example, if the resource being configured above is called "A" and it
depends on a resource called "B", "B" would be the resource that depends on
the network name resource:
CAUSE
An indirect dependency, such as that shown above, will not be recognized by
the Cluster Administrator.
RESOLUTION
If one resource uses another, there should be a direct dependency between
them. Note that it is not necessary to add a dependency for something a
resource does not directly use. For example, extending the illustration
from above:
A --> B --> Network Name --> IP Address
B does not need a dependency on the IP Address unless it uses the IP
address directly.
STATUS
This behavior is by design.
