ERROR_HOST_NODE_NOT_GROUP_OWNER
The operation targets the wrong group owner node
A cluster group is owned by one node at a time. Group moves can change that owner, and preferred-owner configuration can affect placement. An operation that is bound to a particular host node can fail when the group is owned elsewhere or the node is not eligible for the role.
Ownership may have changed between an earlier query and the failing call because of failover or another administrator moving the role. Treat owner information as dynamic state, not a value to cache indefinitely.
What to inspect
- Query the group immediately before the operation and record State and OwnerNode.
- Check preferred and possible owners before forcing a move to the requested node.
- If automation uses multiple steps, re-read group ownership after any start, move, failover, or node-drain operation.
