The service being monitored must be set to Take No Action (see Figure 7.9) within
the guest VM for subsequent failures (which is used after the first and second
failures), and it is set via the Recovery tab of the service properties within the
Services application (services.msc).
Within the guest VM, the Virtual Machine Monitoring firewall exception must be
enabled for the Domain network by using the Windows Firewall with Advanced
Security application or by using the following Windows PowerShell command:
Set-NetFirewallRule -DisplayGroup "Virtual Machine Monitoring" -Enabled
TrueAfter everything in the preceding list is configured, enabling the monitoring is a
simple process:
1 . Launch the Failover Cluster Manager tool.
2 . Navigate to the cluster and select Roles.
3 . Right-click the virtual machine role for which you wish to enable monitoring, and
under More Actions, select Configure Monitoring.
4 . The services running inside the VM will be gathered by the cluster service
communicating to the guest OS inside the virtual machine. Select the check box for
the services that should be monitored, as shown in Figure 7.10, and click OK.
