Decryption error after Cluster failover

Hi Team,

In a cluster environment, when fail over happens, it generate decryption error with a linked server which is registered in cluster environment, please see below for error details. But it gets resolved once executed the below command in Linked server.

 ALTER SERVICE MASTER KEY REGENERATE

Can anybody help on how we can set to automatically work the connection to linked server even after cluster fail over.

I get the following error:

An error occurred during decryption. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 15466)

Msg 15593, Level 16, State 1, Line 1

An error occurred while decrypting the password for linked login ‘<loginName>’ that was encrypted by the old master key. The error was ignored because the FORCE option was specified.

Thanks,

Ashru
