Dan, the cluster.exe does not work on Windows 2008 R2 x64. You'll need to replace the functionality with your own custom script. I am unfamiliar with any scripts in the Xymon repository. Perhaps others on the list can point you to one they use.

Here is some Microsoft documentation on their cluster api: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa373130(v=VS.85).aspx
Here is a management pack for SCOM: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyId=AC7F42F5-33E9-453D-A923-171C8E1E8E55&displaylang=en&displaylang=en Perhaps there is some code in their you will find useful.

Hey all,
Does anyone have a cluster.exe that works with Windows 2008 R2 x64?
I can't get it to work with this OS and I'm assuming it's because Microsoft changed something since the cluster script was written.
Thanks, Dan
