Since you are setting up active-active, you require two license I belive.
But thing you have to consider about active-active is if either partner
fails; the remaining partner will take the full load. So when configuring
hardware for the server make sure it is configured to handle 2x its normal
load.
Thanks.

In setting up a 2-node cluster (active/active) do I need to have an

Also, I'm new to clustering and I just want to verify that I can do an
active/active 2-node clustering with SQL 2005? I see alot of talk about
active/passive but I'd rather have active/active and was wondering if there's
a limitation or particular reason for active/passive |
