Re: Microsoft cluster server / TSM
I had this problem, but it was fixed by making sure that the box titled does affect resource group was NOT checked when the generic resource group was defined. Was this done?

One question if you don't mind... It seems (according to the SA's) that after installing TSM and setting up all of the services, the SA's are not able to move services from one machine to another. They end up having to reboot both machines to free up the resources. Is this anything that you've heard of relating to TSM? There is nothing that I see that indicates TSM is causing this problem. Moreover, I can't imagine how TSM could be holding on to a resource and preventing it from moving.
