I'm not looking for that to occur. In our case we could not complete a backup of both devices from a single node in our backup window.

Previous day 1.4 million files scanned 21,000+ backed up, day the drives were failed only 10 files scanned 1 backed up and no error messages. Scheduler service is not defined in the cluster service, Because the backup schedules for these systems would not complete in 12 hours if both devices were backed up from one of the two cluster nodes.

What schedmode are you using? Is your scheduler service defined in cluster administrator? What if you do a failover without doing the patches part, does the same thing happen?
