ERROR_CLUSTER_MEMBERSHIP_HALT

ERROR_CLUSTER_MEMBERSHIP_HALT means the membership engine requested that the cluster service stop on this node. This is a protective condition and should be investigated as a cluster-health event.

What to check

Check System and FailoverClustering events around the halt timestamp.
Compare the node’s network and storage health with the remaining members.
Collect logs before restarting services repeatedly, because the earlier membership events explain why the halt was requested.
