ERROR_CLUSTER_GROUP_MOVING

ERROR_CLUSTER_GROUP_MOVING means a clustered role is currently moving between nodes and cannot accept the requested operation. The correct action is usually to wait for the move to complete and diagnose the original failover if it does not.

What to check

Check the group state and current owner node.
Review dependent resource states to determine whether the move is progressing or blocked.
Do not issue competing move, offline, or configuration commands while the role is transitioning.
