1. Mount the exported CIFS share in the client nodes.
  2. Bring the fs service online and offline a few times on one of the nodes.

  3. Check the contents of C:\fsonline.txt to see if the online function executed correctly. It should read something like:

    updateconfig succeeded Encrypted device \Device\Harddisk3\Partition1 attached; decrypted contents visible at G:

  4. Check the contents of C:\fsoffline.txt to see if the offline function executed correctly. It should read something like:

    Encrypted device \Device\Harddisk3\Partition1 detached; decrypted contents no longer visible

  5. Using Failover Manager, try moving the fs service over to the other node. Again, check the contents of C:\fsoffline on the source node and C:\fsonline on the target node to ensure that everything worked.
  6. Try rebooting a node and confirming that the fs service smoothly fails over to the new node.
