Cluster Validation Stuck

Hello everyone,

I'm having the following problem when creating a 2-node HA cluster (Server 2025) using the Windows Admin Center. Up to the point ‘Validate Cluster’ everything worked fine. Unfortunately, the process gets stuck at ‘1% Gathering data about nodes’. However, I can confirm that the cluster report was successfully created on the first node without any errors. But still, in WAC, the progress bar stops at 1%.

Has anyone else seen something similar and, ideally, have a solution for me?
