Apples to green apples  yes, the Windows cluster has to be built adding shared storage and (hopefully) a 2nd node. But... Take the existing SQL Server, make it part of that Windows cluster, stop the services, move the databases to the Shared drive(s) and run the "upgrade" from the Installation wizard. All this is really doing is copying binaries to the new node(s), and creating the various registry entries that point to all the right places. I'll stop now just trying to be clear to CLM that the new server he isbuilding can be bumped to a Clustered SQL Server.

CLM's original request only specifies: We're going to have to move data to a new 2000 SP4 server. with no mention of 2005... No difference. You have to build the cluster first. -- Russ Kaufmann MVP - Windows Server - Clustering ClusterHelp.com, a Microsoft Certified Gold Partner Web http://www.clusterhelp.com Blog http://msmvps.com/clusterhelp The next ClusterHelp classes are: Mar 10- 13 in Denver May 12-15 in New York |
