Failed to Create Availability Group, SQL Server 2014 error 41042        encountered


We were moving our SQL server boxes from one domain to another domain and after successful movement to the new domain, including windows cluster, Server's ,SQLServers, we have encountered the issues in Always on  availability group while recreating .

We had encountered the error SQL Server 2014 error 41042, Failed to Create  availability group

"Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 41042".


Below are the easy steps to resolve this issue 

Go to Windows Fail over Cluster Manager console  and “delete” the Resources/Listener which you are not able to create.





Then go the below Registry path for all servers where the Availability group exists.

“ HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Cluster\HadrAgNameToldMap

                           Delete the entries  which are not able to create/failed 




Then re- run the wizard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
