W2008 x64 cluster, unable to query service state "pher" <chapka56[ at ]hotmail.com> 12/17/2008 10:06:36 AM Hello all I'm using GfI Network Server Monitor to monitor our network. No problem with our W2003 servers and clusters, but problem on a Windows 2008 x64 cluster. I'm trying to query a service state from a W2008 x64 node which is part of a cluster. When I query with the node name of the server, it's ok, but when I use the virtual server name I get an error "Unable to query service state". I do not have this problem with Windows Server 2003 32bits. Any help would be greatly appreciated Pierrot

If you check it by the name configured for your application, then it will fail as it is not "scoped" to that "pher" <chapka56[ at ]hotmail.com> wrote in message news:eg74m8CYJHA.556[ at ]TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl...
