I am having an issue trying to use use a Mikrotik CCR router as a file share witness in a WS2019 cluster. I can connect to the share with RW access on a standard Windows 10 machine as well as on one of the member servers in the cluster so I know it is working. When I use the Set-ClusterQuorum -FileShareWitness \\ro.ut.er.ip\Witness -Credential (Get-Credential)
command in powershell, enter the credentials when prompted I get a The Parameter is Incorrect
error. If I use incorrect credentials it will give the appropriate error so I know it is authenticating correctly. The SMB log in the router does not show any errors, in fact it shows a successful connection.
I am baffled.
Has anybody came across this issue before, or may have some additional troubleshooting steps?
Additional notes:
The router does not reside on the same subnet as the cluster members do, but I would assume this would be a non-issue. I am also specifying the IP address of the router instead of using a name in the \\
string.
