An administrator has a 2-node cluster and has chosen the C-SPOC option to bring a resource group offline. The resource group was stable on the primary node prior taking resource offline, however it has gone into an error state. The administrator corrects the error and issues the clruncmd to continue cluster processing.
What will happen to the resource group?
- A. The node shuts down and the resource group goes into temporary error state.
- B. The resource group remains in error state until services on all cluster nodes are stopped and restarted.
- C. The resource group goes offline.
- D. The resource group falls over to the remaining active node.
