SYMPTOMS

When you use the Identify Node command in Compute Cluster Administrator, the CD tray does not open. This problem occurs when you use a non-English version of Microsoft Windows Compute Cluster Server 2003.

Note This problem may also occur when you use a non-English version of Microsoft Windows Server 2003 together with the Microsoft Compute Cluster Pack.

CAUSE

This problem occurs because the script that you use to eject the CD tray is incorrectly translated.
Note This script is located in the Windows\System32\Ejectcd.vbs file.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this problem, follow these steps:
  1. Click Start, click Run, type notepad.exe, and then click OK.
  2. In the File menu, click Open.
  3. Locate, and then click to select the Windows\System32\Ejectcd.vbs file, and then click Open.
  4. Locate, and then select the following line of code:
    cdromObject.InvokeVerb("E&ject")
  5. Replace the selected line of code with the correct version of the following code:
    cdromObject.InvokeVerb("Eject(&shortcut-key)")
    Note For the Eject method, type the command to remove or eject in each of your languages. For "(&shortcut-key)", type the shortcut key for your language version. The following are examples:
    • The parameter for "(&shortcut-key)" in the Japanese language version is &J. Therefore, the method is cdromObject.InvokeVerb("Eject(&J)").
    • The parameter for "Eject(&shortcut-key)" in the German language version is A&uswerfen. Therefore, the method is cdromObject.InvokeVerb("A&uswerfen").
  6. In the File menu, click Save.
