Not everything is supported/available. You can read more here:

https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/failover-clustering/workgroup-and-multi-domain-clusters-in-wi...

From the article:

The following table summarizes the workload support for Workgroup and Multi-site clusters.

Cluster Workload	Supported/Not Supported	More Information
SQL Server	Supported	We recommend that you use SQL Server Authentication.  This will apply to only SQL Server Always On Availability Groups (AGs).  SQL Server Failover Cluster Instances (FCI) will require Kerberos for Active Directory authentication.
File Server	Supported, but not recommended	Kerberos (which is not available) authentication is the preferred authentication protocol for Server Message Block (SMB) traffic.
Hyper-V	Supported, but not recommended	Live migration is not supported. Quick migration is supported.
Message Queuing (MSMQ)	Not supported	Message Queuing stores properties in AD DS.
