    Hi SqlBuddy,

    But multiples instances on a single cluster node is not usually recommended.

    Do you happen to have any microsoft (preferred, or any other) links / white papers saying this? and why it's not recommended?

    As far as supporting all instances on one node... these are all "pre-prod" databases, not heavily hit. I'm only talking about 2 total instances. I don't think that this will really be an issue.

    If you can't explain to another person how the code that you're copying from the internet works, then DON'T USE IT on a production system! After all, you will be the one supporting it!
