Hi, is there any step by step guide on setting up multiple instance of
Microsoft SQL server cluster with more than 2 /3 active nodes ? There is no
such training course available anyway ?

Thanks A Lot !

Hi

Same rules apply as setting up one. IP, Virtual Server Name, Drives, Run
Install, apply the hotfix etc.
You just repeat the process until your have enough, or you reach the
supported maximum of 16 per cluster.

Just leave enough RAM on each node so that it can handle at worst case,
either 1/2 or all the virtual servers at once.
