This is a horrible question. To actually *CHANGE* the priority you have to tick the box, if you merely change the priority without ticking it then the order is ignored (ie if you click OK and then go back in it will have reverted). So as asked, if you move the server up then the answer is "No". If the question says you change the priority then "Yes" because to actually change the priority you have to tick it! Of course equally it won't fail over to Server1 as there is no Preferred Owner but that doesn't fulfil the requirement of *Ensuring* it doesn't fail over!

Yeah I agree, it makes no difference. As it is in the picture; there is no preferred owner. Let's say we tick the box next to Server 2 and move it to the top that will be the preferred owner if we leave the tickbox). It will make sure Server 2 is preferred. But again the service is already running on Server2 so there is not much of a difference. So i would say "no" because the question is around to make sure the app stays on S2 when you boot up S1.

Failback never occurs automatically. There must be a reason. Priority is not important in this case. Any incident that affects Server2, and according to the values ​​in the Failover tab, or force majeure, will cause it to fail over to Server1. Only "Prevent failback" or Pause Server1 in Cluster would prevent it.

Answer is NO, because simply moving Server2 up without checking the box will not ensure that App1 continues to run on Server2 when Server1 is restarted. Preferred Owner is "any node". B. No.

without any of the 'Preferred Owners' nodes checkbox selected (ticked), the cluster roles Preferred Owners mode is 'Any Mode' and no preference to the order will be applied. Once any node is selected (checkbox ticked) the overall cluster roles Preferred Owners mode changes to 'User Settings' where the user selected preferred order will be applied. This is demonstrated very well in the following demonstration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0H7QsSmQW8&t=13s

Selected Answer: B
Based on the exhibit as presented, the answer is B as the servers are not ticked and they have to be both to be moved and to apply. Exhibits are not supposed to require any implications. If I picked B and was told I was wrong, I would dispute this question.

The tick is to choose which server to press "move up" and "move down". Lol, funny explanation attempt though.

You can move nodes up and down without ticking them but it will not save the order of nodes that are not ticked.

A) Checking the box or not, Server 2 is still at the top. More Info: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/failover-clustering/preferred-owners-in-a-cluster/ba-p/371290 The key point I want to make is that, when you set the preferred owners for a group to a subset of the nodes in a cluster, you’re not saying “I want the group to failover only to these nodes”. What you’re effectively saying is, “please reorder the nodes such that these are at the front of the list.” The rest of the cluster nodes will be appended to the list, and the group will still failover to every node in the cluster before going back to the first node in the preferred owners list.

You have to check the box for the node to stay in the position on the list you chose for it.

Video mentioned by GoforIT21 shows ticking and moving to top of list. Which is confirmed by help, and says that server must be ticked. Select nodes from the list, and then use the buttons to list them in order. If you want this service or application to be moved to a particular node whenever that node is available: Select the check box for a node and use the buttons to place it at the top of the list. On the Failover tab, ensure that failback is allowed for this service or application.
