Get information about one or more failover clusters in a given domain.
Syntax
Get-Cluster [-Domain <string>] [<CommonParameters>]
- Domain
Get-Cluster [[-Name] <string>] [<CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description
This cmdlet can obtain a variety of configuration and state information about a failover cluster, including the following items:
– State information about whether a backup is in progress.
– State information about whether the cluster is in a forced quorum state.
– Cross-network settings that are especially relevant for multi-site clusters.
To set a common property for the cluster, use this cmdlet to get the cluster object and then set the appropriate property on that cluster object directly.

Failover Cluster cmdlets
This reference provides cmdlet descriptions and syntax for all failover cluster-specific cmdlets in Windows PowerShell in Windows Server® 2008 R2. It lists the cmdlets in alphabetical order based on the verb at the beginning of the cmdlet. For a list of cmdlets in alphabetical order by task focus, that is, by the noun at the end of the cmdlet, see Failover Cluster Cmdlets in Windows PowerShell Listed by Task Focus (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=162164).
The Windows PowerShell cmdlets provide an alternative interface for actions that you might otherwise perform with command-line commands or the Failover Cluster Manager snap-in.
Failover Clustering cmdlets
| Cmdlet name | Cmdlet use |
|---|---|

| Add-ClusterGenericServiceRole | Configure high availability for a service that was not originally designed to run in a failover cluster. |
| Add-ClusterGroup | Add an empty resource group to the failover cluster configuration, in preparation for adding clustered resources to the group. |
| Add-ClusterNode | Add a node (server) to a failover cluster. Before adding the new node, you should run validation tests on the existing nodes together with the proposed new node. |

| Add-ClusterResource | Add a resource to a clustered service or application (resource group) in a failover cluster. |
| Add-ClusterResourceDependency | Add a resource to the list of resources that a particular resource depends on (using AND as the connector) within a failover cluster. Existing dependencies will remain in the list. |
| Add-ClusterResourceType | Add a resource type to a failover cluster, and specify information such as the dynamic-link library (DLL) to use with that resource type. |
| Add-ClusterServerRole | Add a group containing only a client access point and storage to the failover cluster configuration. |
| Add-ClusterSharedVolume | Make a volume available in Cluster Shared Volumes in a failover cluster. |
| Add-ClusterVirtualMachineRole | Create a clustered virtual machine, that is, a virtual machine that can be failed over if necessary to a different server in the failover cluster. |
| Block-ClusterAccess | Prevent the specified user or users from accessing a failover cluster. |
| Clear-ClusterDiskReservation | Clear the persistent reservation on a disk in a failover cluster. |
| Clear-ClusterNode | Clear the cluster configuration from a node that was evicted from a failover cluster. |
| Get-Cluster | Get information about one or more failover clusters in a given domain. |
| Get-ClusterAccess | Get information about permissions that control access to a failover cluster. |
| Get-ClusterAvailableDisk | Get information about the disks that can support failover clustering and are visible to all nodes, but are not yet part of the set of clustered disks. |
| Get-ClusterGroup | Get information about one or more clustered services or applications (resource groups) in a failover cluster. |

| Get-ClusterNetworkInterface | Get information about one or more network adapters in a failover cluster. |
| Get-ClusterNode | Get information about one or more nodes (servers) in a failover cluster. |

| Get-ClusterParameter | Get detailed information about an object in a failover cluster, such as a cluster resource. This cmdlet is used to manage private properties for a cluster object. |
| Get-ClusterQuorum | Get information about the quorum configuration of a failover cluster. |
| Get-ClusterResource | Get information about one or more resources in a failover cluster. |

| Start-ClusterNode | Start the Cluster service on a node in a failover cluster. |
| Start-ClusterResource | Bring a resource online in a failover cluster. |
| Stop-Cluster | Stop the Cluster service on all nodes in a failover cluster, which will stop all services and applications configured in the cluster. |
