The FailoverClusters module can help to manage Windows Failover using PowerShell. It reduces the time for performing administration tasks using the GUI and helps to do automation. For example, if you need to perform a cluster operation every day, you can use a scheduled task to execute a PowerShell cmdlet that will help automate the required tasks.
If we enable Failover clustering on the Windows server, it is automatically installed. However, if we want to manage the failover cluster remotely, we need to run the import module with the following command.
Import-Module failoverclusters
It gives an error in Windows 10 because it does not failover cluster installed.
Solution
· Navigate to Remote Server Administration Tools for Windows 10 and download the tool, restart your Windows 10 machine to import FailoverCLusters module.
· If you have Windows 10 October 2018 updates installed, you can install RSAT from the Manage optional features in the settings page. CLick on the Add a feature and install the RSAT tools.
