Setup Failover Cluster without AD?

$

Hello All,

I am kind of new to cluster and would like your opinion on setting up failover cluster for 2 servers Dell PowerEdge R420 with Windows 2012 Server STD Edition.

How can I setup cluster for these 2 servers without AD? Since once you try to validate the cluster if you dont have AD setup it does not let you proceed.

My layout curret is:

server A as <servername>.local 

server B as <servername1.local

Would this layout works for failover cluster? Or the bellow is better?

server A as <servername>.local

server B part of server A domain and promote server B as domain controller as well? 

Not sure the best method here. Any thoughts? 

Thanks in advance,

Cheers,

Bruno
