    After installing KB2750149 on one of our cluster nodes the UI would no longer function properly in the following way:

    The Failover Cluster Manager will start, I can select Nodes and it will list the nodes, once I select a Node I get an very long exception message stating that "a weak event was created and it lives on the wrong object.....".  From there a dialog pops up that never goes away and I have to end the task.

    I uninstalled KB2750149 and the UI works fine as before.

    I have no idea if the update is revealing a problem in the Failover Cluster Manager or if the update is buggy, either way please fix this.  

    Thanks!

    Thank you for the post, we are aware that the hotfix KB2750149 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2750149 which was just released yesterday 1/8/2013 is negatively impacting the Failover Cluster Manager snap-in.

    We are actively investigating, and we will post more information as it becomes available.  The only known workaround at this time is to uninstall the hotfix.  We are recommending you do not deploy hotfix KB2750149 on Windows Server 2012 Failover Clusters until a solution is available.

    We apologize for the inconvenience, more information to come.

    Thanks!!

    Same issue. Just built a new cluster, the nodes already had this patch installed before being clustered. Failover Cluster Manager crashing as described. Removed patch from both node and it’s stable. RDP is still working.

    I can confirm KB2803748 has appeared on WSUS and fixes the issue. No reboot needed which is a bonus.

    Can confirm too. But no reboot is needed only if no users logged-on with Failover Clustering snap-in loaded.
