Triggering a Force-Start

To recover a cluster that has Persistence enabled after a cluster-wide restart, you can force a cluster to delete their persistence stores when one or more members fail to restart.

Before you Begin

You should trigger a force-start only if your cluster has Persistence enabled and it is configured to use the FULL_RECOVERY_ONLY policy. See Choosing a Cluster Recovery Policy.

Force-start deletes all data in your cluster members' persistence stores.
