I had a server in a cluster fail today and needed to reboot. All of the
volumes on the master have mounted to the 2nd node, as it should.
However, since I inherited this network, cluster services is new to me
and I don't know how to move some of these volumes back to the orginal
node, as I beleive they were configured with a few volumes mounted on
one and a few mounted on the other (if that makes sense). Also, how do
I make my orginal node that failed, the master again?

Is this a netWare or a Linux cluster?
As you are not familiar with clustering, I suggest you at least read
the cluster admin guide. The link to the guide is,
For NetWare: 'Novell Doc: OES 2: Novell Cluster Services 1.8.4 for
NetWare Administration Guide - OES 2: Novell Cluster Services 1.8.4 for
NetWare Administration Guide' (http://tinyurl.com/3tvz2z)
For Linux: 'Novell Doc: OES 2: Novell Cluster Services 1.8.4 for Linux
Administration Guide - OES 2: Novell Cluster Services 1.8.4 for Linux
Administration Guide' (http://tinyurl.com/44xw3q)

Assuming the case of a NetWare cluster, your specifc question is
answered here:
'Novell Doc: OES 2: Novell Cluster Services 1.8.4 for NetWare
Administration Guide - Migrating Resources' (http://tinyurl.com/4el3m5)
Additionally, console commands can be used to do the same thing. These
are described here:
'Novell Doc: OES 2: Novell Cluster Services 1.8.4 for NetWare
Administration Guide - Novell Cluster Services Console Commands'
(http://tinyurl.com/3qdrze) (check the MIGRATE command).

also, there are a couple Novell Press books that can help.

There is a kind-of out-of-date but still relevant version by Payne &
Wipfel - cheap on the used market...

The other is a newer vesion by Rob Bastiaansen and someone else
(sorry). Newer, more relevant.
