Default Renaming a SQL Cluster - 06-14-2005 , 05:41 AM







Can anyone tell me if it's possible to rename a cluster?

Fro example, we have an Active/Passive cluster made up of two servers.
'Server1' and 'Server2' which make up the cluster 'Cluster1' is it
possible to rename this to 'Cluster2' without affecting the servers that
make it up?

Thanks

Yes, you can rename the cluster. You can't rename SQL Instances though.

Start Cluster Administrator from the Cluster Group Controlling node - use a
"." as the cluster name.
Take the Cluster Group Offline.
Double click on the Network Name resource and change the parameters
information.
Bring the Cluster Group Online.

Cheers,

Rod
