Default How Setup Single-Node Cluster on Windows 2003? - 12-31-2003 , 05:59 PM






Hello. We want to setup a Single Node cluster for a
Development Server, since we have only one server (we have
2 node Clusters already for Test and Production
environments). If the Development SQL Server 2000
Environment is running in Clustered mode, it will be easier
to migrate the databases to Test and Production
environments. We are running Windows 2003 Enterprise
Edition. We have found instructions on how to setup a
Single Node Cluster on Windows 2000, but not Windows 2003.
Anyone out there who can give us guidance?

The process basically the same with Windows 2003. From Knowledge Base
article 283715:

"In Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 and Microsoft Windows 2000 you can perform a
local quorum installation of a server cluster to create a stand-alone
cluster. This cluster is going to be a single server, with no shared disk.
This functionality remains the same with Windows Server 2003; however, the
Cluster service automatically creates the local quorum resource if it does
not detect a shared disk (no special switches or installation procedure is
required)..."

Hope this helps,
