I think I f'ed up.

so i noticed that sddc management wasn't being able to brought online.
I went in to
remove-clusterresource -name "sddc management"
remove-clusterresourcetype -name "sddc management"

Windows Admin Center will then show this error on the overview page.

Can't manage this connection

Read the "Getting started" documentation

Run the following PowerShell cmdlet as Administrator on the cluster:
Add-ClusterResourceType -Name "SDDC Management" -dll "$env:SystemRoot\Cluster\sddcres.dll" -DisplayName "SDDC Management"
Try an Insider Preview build of Windows Server

I then go do that
Add-ClusterResourceType -Name "SDDC Management" -dll "$env:SystemRoot\Cluster\sddcres.dll" -DisplayName "SDDC Management"

but sddc management still can't be brought online.

c:\windows\cluster\sddcres.dll exists.

    nevermind. I'm not sure what happened it came back online.

    things I did
    (on all nodes, rather than just 1)
    Add-ClusterResourceType -Name "SDDC Management" -dll "$env:SystemRoot\Cluster\sddcres.dll" -DisplayName "SDDC Management"

    configure the sddc group under roles. to add preferred owners.

    test-cluster -node node-1,node-2,node-3,node-4 -include 'storage spaces direct','inventory','Network','system configuration'

    enable-clusters2d -verbose. (which ran partially)

    test-cluster -node node-1,node-2,node-3,node-4 -include 'storage spaces direct','inventory','Network','system configuration'
