Clustering SQL server 2008

  • Hi,

    Clustering SQL 2008 has changed since SQL 2005. You install SQL Server on each node that will be in the cluster. One thing I haven't found an answer for is: "Do you need to set up the windows cluster first and then install sql?"

    Is it so that you don't have to cluster windows before you install sql?

    Does anyone know that?

    Thanks in advance

  • Yes you must have windows clustered first before clustering SQL as the SQL install steps you run to cluster it are different and run many checks to ensure the correct setup is there.
