Cluster Wide Any Node Resource Specific • Task is scheduled on all Nodes of the cluster • Task is scheduled on a single random Node of the cluster • Task is scheduled only on the node which currently owns the specified Resource Power. Shell Cmdlet Description Register-Clustered. Scheduled. Task Creating a new clustered scheduled task Unregister-Clustered. Scheduled. Task Delete a clustered scheduled task Set-Clustered. Scheduled. Task Update existing clustered task Get-Clustered. Scheduled. Task Enumerating existing clustered tasks

Simplify host patching and repairs Draining a node • Node is paused preventing new groups from moving to that node • All groups are issued a move • VMs are queued up and live migrated off based on priority Resuming a node • Resume-Cluster. Node –Failback invokes failback policies to return groups to that node when it is brought out of Maintenance Mode
