SQL Server Forum / Other Technologies / Clustering / June 2005Single Node Cluster Upgrade
We have a SQL 2k Single Node Cluster that we are adding a Passive node to. We have installed everything but are having issues installing SP3a on the Passive node. The Active Node has SP3a already installed. We get an error stating "All cluster disks available to this virtual server are owned by other node(s)". We rolled the cluster to the passive node and got SQL Group Errors. Any ideas? Cheers, John Sounds like a problem with either the drive letter assignments on the new node or its configuration in general. Can the new node control all the disks?

Once you fix that, the SP will install. As Rodney mentioned, make sure that the resources can be owned by the other node.

Is is possible to upgrade the node from the active node? Hi Run some basic checks on your cluster. Take SQL Server offline on the Primary node. Fail the cluster services over to the other node. Looks like the basic cluster is not right. Is the 2nd node a possible resource owner for all the resources? By default, they are not.

If you do the install from the primary node, the SP setup should ask you if u are upgrading the virtual server. If you select this option, it should upgrade both nodes with the service pack!
