Right. But that can also be done via CLI or GUI with the cluster running.

This is not on a single system but rather large number of systems (100+) Also so many thanks to Gene and John for resolving my doubts.

It is a warning.

I know that if the haagents are restarted with hastop -all -force and this file is present the cluster memebers could be in stale admin wait state. I have been deleting this file then hastop -all -force and then hastart on the the nodes. I do not want the service groups to go offline that's why -force. My query is what is the use of .stale ? Would hastart -force help to get nodes back if this file is present ? Is file deletion the only method to get the nodes back ? I noticed recently that when getting the cluster back, this way my clusters the information about the admin password. I thnk I'm doing something wrong.....any help. Ciao.
