    Disregard previous post! 🙂 ...

    I am actually deploying a Virtual SQL 2012 Cluster following this guide. Here's the quick software list:

    -VMware Workstation 9.0

    -freeNAS 8.2

    -Win 2008 R2 evaluation ed.

    So far so good. I managed to setup the shared storage using freeNAS and installing DC and Node1 now. The freeNas screenshots and option are totally different though. Menu changed ...

    I now use Windows storage server to create iSCSI targets that are exposed to the cluster nodes, but if you're happy using FreeNAS thats fine. If you're using the later version of FreeNAS there'll definitely be changes in the menu.

    The SQL Server installer hasn't changed too much between 2008 R2 and 2012, so no great shakes there.

    Post back if you get stuck.
