Details of the scenario you try and problem that is occurring:
When installing a clustered SQL Server instance, the undocumented parameter /SkipRules='Cluster_VerifyForErrors' is automatically added to the setup arguments. This can introduce supportability issues when contacting Microsoft for support. See this article for more information. This option should be converted to a parameter to support all use cases.

The DSC configuration that is using the resource (as detailed as possible):
Any configuration which specifies 'InstallFailoverCluster' or 'CompleteFailoverCluster' for the parameter 'Action'.

Version of the Operating System, SQL Server and PowerShell the DSC Target Node is running:
Windows Server 2008R2+

Version of the DSC module you're using, or 'dev' if you're using current dev branch:

We should add a parameter SkipRule.

We should allow it to pass several rules:

Since these are undocumented this is blog and has a reference; https://deep.data.blog/2014/04/02/sql-2012-setup-rules-the-missing-reference/

- SqlSetup
  - BREAKING CHANGE: When installing a failover cluster the cluster
    validation is no longer skipped by default. To skip cluster validation
    the configuration must opt-in by specifying the following
    `SkipRule = 'Cluster_VerifyForErrors'` (issue #335).
