Add another cluster node

arfur · 13 Feb 2007 at 11:02

I've got a single node built with a cluster environment up and running, the server has MSSQL 2000 installed and is configured as a clustered service and uses a SAN. What I need to do is introduce another node to the cluster and get SQL running on that with out loosing any data already there and with the minimum amount of downtime,

any ideas?

thanks :confused:

anyone? I've read that with SQL2000 you can simply run the setup and it will install on the 2nd node, can anyone confirm?

Not done it myself but this looks like a good tutorial: http://www.sql-server-performance.com/sqlserver2000_clustering_install_part2.asp
