An error occurred while creating the cluster.
An error occurred creating cluster 'HyperV3Cluster'.
The parameter is incorrect
To troubleshoot cluster creation problems, run the Validate a Configuration wizard on the servers you want to cluster.

Hi,
This is a priviledge issue with windows server 2012 which preventing from creating a cluster. to solve the problem do the following:
1. Manually create CNO (Cluster Name Object) in Active Directory.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc731002%28d=printer,v=ws.10%29.aspx
2. Ensure that CNO$ account has Full Control on the CNO and The computers container.
3. Add CNO$ account (CNO computer object) in Local Admins group.
4. Finally, add CNO$ in Domain Admins group.

Hi,
Have you tried the Clear-ClusterNode command to manually clean up the cluster, maybe there is some installation error and system try to clean up the installation, but can’t finish clean up.
And if possible, reinstall the OS and then re-try to create the cluster.
For more information please refer to following MS articles:

I did clear for both nodes but still same error, that was a fresh installation. do i have to reinstall OS ? is there any other option ?

Hi,
Still the same problem after reinstall the OS.

You included everything, but the important parts... the log statements you have above are the attempts to clean-up, after the failure. But they don't include the logging of the failure... that's what we really need. So scroll up a few lines and focus on the failure.
See this blog for troubleshooting steps:

Communication between nodes and DC may be blocked. Check port TCP & UDP port 464 (Kerberos Change/Set password) is open. This may be one of the root cause for this issue.

Re-install the OS? That's a pretty drastic suggestion for a error at the final phases of the install. That's like saying if you have a flat tire on your car, get a new car.

Another useless suggestion; I have experienced this same error and the original post includes all of the information the wizard provides.

If the business requirement is MSCS for MS SQL, how are you doing that with only VMware LOL. You still need the OS.
Tuesday, April 5, 2016 8:27 PM
In addition to the suggestions regarding required ports between MSCS and the AD Domain, and the suggestion regarding manual creation also keep in mind that MSCS is very sensitive to correct time. The time on the nodes needs to match the AD time on the DC, or it will fail with this exact error as well.

Hes saying that he is going to stick to VMware for failover and replication. I would too, because its much easier to configure, but I have a stubborn software that wont run in a virtualized environment.

Check the dns 'A' record created or not in DNS Server of cluster name. Also make sure which users you are using those have domain admin rights or not?
