Cluster Question

  • Windows 2008 cluster and windows 2008 r2 cluster

    SQL 2008

    For the above configuration, is there a way or query to find if the Cluster is active/active or active/passive or active/active/passive etc

    and how to find if it is a server reboot or cluster failover

    Summarizing..

    1.Find cluster configuration .A/P or A/A or A/A/P etc

    2.Is it server reboot or Cluster failover from one node to another or node restarted in same node

  • Nobody ever came across this info? 🙁

    1. There is no direct way to do this.

    2. You need read the log file to distinguish it. Use xp_ReadErrorLog.

    You can track the active node for an instance using SELECT SERVERPROPERTY('ComputernamePhysicalNetbios').

    The easiest way to find out if a server reboot occurred, is to track the stopping and starting of the windows eventlog service through the windows system eventlog
