Default HELP!! Are we screwed? SQL Server 7 clustering on a single node - 06-24-2004 , 10:35 AM






Hi All
We're doing a demo tomorrow. However we only have a single node available
and SQL 7 clustering wizard tells me that there is no cluster. There is, but
its only a single node. Everything else is in order re disks, resource
groups, services, etc.

Am I to take if from this that SQL Server 7 Enterprise cannot be installed
on a Windows 2000 Advance Server comprised of a single node?

If this is the case does anyone have a brilliant idea about to get around
this "incovenience" ? Virtual Servers??

Many thanks in advance

Barry Lynch

Hi All
As a followup... Adding a VMWare VM as the second node was successful and
the SQL install completed perfectly. Failing it over might prove to be a
challenge though ;-)
