Hello,

I cannot install SP2 on a new node that was added after SP2 applied to the
primary.
We had the following scenarios. Node A SP2, node B RTM.

Scenario 1) Resources moved to node A (also MSDTC and Cluster group). Setup
running on node A.
Setup warns (even in log) "The product instance XXX been patched with more
recent updates."
Since it sees that local instance is patched, setup don't go on. I cannot
select any clusterized instance.

Scenario 2) Resources moved to node B (also MSDTC and Cluster group). Setup
running on node B.

Setup logs:
12/18/2007 13:13:55.175 Exit code for passive node: XXXXA = 11203
12/18/2007 13:13:56.972 The following exception occurred: No passive nodes

12/18/2007 13:13:57.440 Watson: Param10 = 3042

I undertstand, he cannot patch an already patched node (A). Setup stops
ignoring local node. So... how can I just patch a single node (B)?

I read uninstalling Setup Support Files and reinstalling them will help
faking an RTM node to the setup, but during uninstall I got the following
warning "Warning 26002: The following product(s) is dependent on Microsoft
SQL Server Setup Support Files (English), the key will be broken…" and it
lists one of our instances (just one). We will test it virtually, we cannot
afford loosing that instance.
Thank you!

Andrea
