I'm experiencing a problem with the CQL on an exchange server which is acting as a passive node in a DAG cluster. To make the counters show the correct values in EMC and PS i've been adviced to restart the Cluster Service on the passive node. Is this safe to do in a production environment? The Passive Exchange-role is the only role for this server so no other systems should be affected as far as I know.
Thanks for your help!

As long as the passive node in the cluster is actually passive (eg no cluster aware applications are currently running on it) you should be OK to reboot it or whatever you want to do to it. You can verify node ownership of resources in the GUI or with
get-clusterresource
