• i understand that...

    I'm just trying to find an answer why even though i follow the same

    installation configuration, one of my clustered sql server shows in properties name

    the same name that we chose for vitrual sql name

    and second clustered sql shows the clustername in properties name for sql server

    but i still have no problems connecting to it by sql server virtual name.

    like i said before, i had to create an alias for that second cluster

    where alias name is a cluster name and server is a virtual sql name, using named pipes connection.

    So my question is why when you going to properties for clustered sql server,

    in the name line it shows me a cluster group name instead of virt sql name???
