SYMPTOMS
When you start the Cluster Administration utility (CluAdmin.exe) and more than 100 physical disk drives are attached to the cluster server, the Cluster Administration utility may stop responding (hang), and may then generate an access violation error message. This symptom may occur while the program is searching for the cluster signature during the physical drive initialization phase.

The following event ID message may be logged in the Event log:

Event ID: 1146

Source: ClusSvc

Description: The cluster resource monitor died unexpectedly, an attempt will be made to restart it.

The following entries may be generated in the Cluster.log: [RM] Exception. Code = 0xc0000005, Address = 0x77fcbaac [RM] Exception parameters: 0, fffffffd, 1003f, 0 [RM] CallStack: [RM] Address  Frame 008FF6C0 77FCBAAC  RtlSizeHeap+00000173 008FF70C 77E865D6  LocalAlloc+0000006E 008FF730 738E9E80  0001:00028E80 C        008FF7B4  738DBD8D  0001:0001AD8D C        008FF7E4  738DBF02  0001:0001AF02 C        008FF810  738D6F10  0001:00015F10 C        008FF888  010090FE  0001:000080FE C        008FF8BC  01008753  0001:00007753 C        008FF8F0  77D447D8  NdrServerInitialize+000001E8 008FFD0C 77DA2586  NdrStubCall2+00000586 008FFD28 77DA31D1  NdrServerCall2+00000017 008FFD60 77D44CEE  NdrSimpleStructMarshall+00000425 008FFDB8 77D44BFB  NdrSimpleStructMarshall+00000332 008FFDD8 77D44B21  NdrSimpleStructMarshall+00000258 008FFE10 77D46006  NdrConformantArrayFree+00000E3E 008FFE28 77D45BD1  NdrConformantArrayFree+00000A09 008FFF74 77D509A7  RpcBindingSetOption+00001354 008FFFA8 77D50781  RpcBindingSetOption+0000112E 008FFFB4 77D50C7A  RpcBindingSetOption+00001627 008FFFEC 77E8758A  SetFilePointer+0000018A [RM] Active Resource = 00091F90 [RM] Resource State is 12, &quot;ResourceTypeControl&quot; [RM] Resource name is Disk I: [RM] Resource type is Physical Disk [FM] FmpRmResourceControl: RmResourceControl returned 1726 for resource fbd41aaf-53f0-4ac6-aa3d-03f786cd0480, resid=29436520...

CAUSE
The problem is caused by a limitation of 100 physical disk drives. During the scanning of the drives, when the software reached physical drive number 101, a buffer is released for the second time, and this causes damage in the heap for the process.
