The AutoFailbackType property specifies whether the group should automatically be failed back to the node identified as its preferred owner when that node comes back online following a failover.

Caption

Data type: string
Access type: Read-only

Provides a short textual description of the group.

Inherited from MSCluster_LogicalElement.

Characteristics

Data type: uint32
Access type: Read/write
