After you have prepared Node 2 and configured Node 1, go to Node 2 to finish the configuration:

  1. Confirm that you have completed the configuration on Node 1.

  2. On the Add a failover license on this computer page, you can add your failover license.

  3. When the configuration is successful, the failover web console opens automatically on Node 2. Node 1 comes into the PRIM state, and Node 2 comes into the SECOND state.

    The wizard adds a shortcut to the failover web console to your desktop on both nodes.

You can enforce a node failover to ensure that the setup is correct. You can then swap the nodes again to revert to the original state of the nodes.

To continue with the setup, see After you configure the failover cluster.

If the configuration fails, remove the current configuration and start the process again, see Remove existing configuration.
