The Failover Cluster Manager should control the Broker Monitor and the Broker Server. To do this, you must break the current dependency between the two services.

To remove the Broker Server dependency on node A

1. Launch the Registry Editor using regedit or regedt32 command.

2. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SYSTEM > CurrentControlSet > Services.

3. Select webMethodsBroker_version_6849. If you used a port number other than 6849, the entry will end in the port number you specified when you created the Broker Server with the server_config command.

4. Navigate to the DependOnService key (type = REG_MULT_SZ). Double-click this key and clear the value from webMethodsBrokerMonitor_version to break the current dependency between the two services.

5. Click OK.

6. Additionally, set this paramater in <installation>\Broker\bin\awbrokermon.cfg: monitor-start-servers = no. This stops the monitor from triggering the start of the servers.
