hi

this issue can occur because of multiple reasons seen in past and online forums including microsoft technet forums.

user can try following in serial order:

  1. uninstall antivirus test.

  2. uninstall hp ncu software and make sure there no nic teaming [if using hp ncu].

  3. generate [cluster.exe . log /gen ] after issue along failover clustering operational event logs and system event logs after reproducing issue when make changes above and see clues.

  4. many times reinstalling host has resolved ultimately.
