Is it possible to setup a second instance of SQL Server Enterprise on a box
and setup clustering? I have someone asking me that has only one Server to
do this with and they want to learn about Clustering.

Win2003 <-> Win2003 (SameBox)

OR

Can you run SQL Server on an XP machine and still setup clustering on a
Win2K03 Server and cluster the 2?

XP <--> Win2003 (Two Boxes)

Thanks

Erik

Cluster on XP <--> Win2003 (Two Boxes) -- No, the hardware needs to be
identical.

A better solution would be to run PC emulation software like VMWARE and
create a 2-node virtual cluster on one Windows 2003 computer.
