When I try to ping from VM, I get this error 'PING: transmit failure, General failure'.

comment Set up AlwaysOn in virtual environment: How to add nodes to domain?
Thanks Thomas & Phil. I changes the IP address of DC to 192.168.x.x. And pointed the VMs to the new IP. On the VM, in Network Adapter Settings, I selected 'Obtain IP address automatically' and for DNS server address, I put in the IP address of the Domain Controller IP (which also has DNS). IP address of the DC is 192.168.1.10. But after all this, the VMs are not able to join the domain. I get the same error as shown in the original post above. Any ideas what I could do?

I just checked, DNS is instaled as part of configuring DC. But how do I make other VMs see DNS? It has something to do with Network Adapter settings, but not sure what exactly !!

It would help if you could suggest a proper NIC configuration necessary for this to work?

It cannot ping either of them. DNS server? I do not remember configuring one.

comment AlwaysOn Availability Groups: Confusion with some concepts
Another aspect is what is the difference between 'Computer Account' and 'Computer Account for Clustered Services or Application'. Hope someone can help!!

comment AlwaysOn Availability Groups: Confusion with some concepts
After re-reading your comments, I think, this is what I understand. When Joe (domain admin) creates a cluster called Cluster1 successfully, all the necessary permissions needed to any future actions are assigned to Cluster1. Now, when this Cluster1 creates a Computer Name Object (CNO), for example, a Listner, that could be done successfully because Cluster1 has all the permissions. Is this correct? One aspect of my confusion is between 'Computer Object' & 'Computer Name Object'. How are these two different?

Thanks for the response. I understand the prestaging process (or I think). Now, if we were to take the non-prestage route, are the comments I made earlier valid? Now a different follow up (based on your new comments). Cluster1 is the name of the cluster and 'DBClusterListner' (let's say) is the Cluster Service or Application. Since these both are Computer Object Names, the person who creates them needs permissions on AD (domain), correct?

So, 'Cluster1' is the name of cluster (like a computer name in the domain) and 'Computer Account for Clustered Service or Application' is like a user account under which the 'Cluster1' will run. Essentially 'Cluster1' is a service on the OS (but in the Domain, it is treated as a new computer). Now we need Joe to have all the permissions because, 1) he needs to create 'Cluster1' 2) create a new user for 'Computer Account for Clustered Service or Application' and assign this account all privileges. Is this guess work correct?

Thank you for the quick response. I'll read the blog article, hopefully that will help. Following you example: Cluster1 is the Cluster name (Computer Object Name) and Joe is the account that is running the 'Create cluster' wizard. Right? So, Joe must have permissions to create a new computer object called 'Cluster1' (Computer Object Name) in the AD (domain). Then what is 'Computer Account for Cluster Service or Application'. How is this different from the 'Cluster1'. I'll add my guess in the following comment.
