SQL Server Forum / Other Technologies / Clustering / December 20053-nodes SQL Server 2000 Cluster
Hi there, Just want to know is it possbile to configure a 3-nodes (A/A/P) SQL Server 2000 cluster running on Windows 2000 advance OS? Btw, any website or whitepaper can I refer to? Thanks in advance! Dicky Yes it is possible. No, I am unaware of any particular documentation. What you are actually looking at is a three-node, two-instance SQL Cluster. Follow the normal cluster build process, except where you would normally do something with "the other node" think "the other nodes".  SignatureGeoff N.

You will need Windows 2003 as the base OS. SignatureGeoff N. Hiten Senior Database Administrator Microsoft SQL Server MVP > Yes it is possible.

All you said is I have to upgrade Windows 2003 Enterprise version for a 3-nodes cluster. Yes. That is pretty much all it takes. SignatureGeoff N.

Hey, Geoff, I don't mean to step into all of your conversations. I did want to add, however, that although WINDOWS 2K3 EE supports up to 8-node clusters, SQL SERVER 2K, 32 bit will only support up to 4-node clusters. Before you purchase your OS, seriously consider the IA-64 platform, the license is the same and is transferable from the 32-bit architecture. And, the "Liberty" build included the support for 8-nodes. Sincerely, Anthony Thomas > Yes. That is pretty much all it takes. > > > Thanks a lot, all!

Migrate to Windows Server 2003 :) Windows 2000 is not longer supported and I would not even consider it for a HA solution today.
