Debugresmon command

The debugresmon command helps you to debug the resource monitor process and, therefore, the resource dynamic-link libraries (DLLs) that are loaded by the resource monitor. You can use any standard Windows-based debugger, such as Microsoft Developer Studio.

The syntax is:

clussvc /debug /debugresmon

Note

  • The debugresmon command can be used only when starting the cluster service in the command prompt window. The debugresmon command cannot be used as a start parameter when starting the cluster service in the Computer Management console.

Just before the resource monitor process is started up, the cluster service issues the message:

"Waiting for debugger to connect to the resmon process x"

where x is the process identification number (PID) of the resource monitor process.

After the resource monitor process has started and you have attached a debugger to the resource monitor process, the Cluster service continues with its initialization.
