Clustering

  • We have a 2 node Windows 2003 active/passive SQL 2005 failover cluster. OS is on SP2 and SQL build is 4035. It is fairly new and is not in production yet, and I have been asked to uninstall SQL server on the passive node, as it had some issue with the ip address.

    What is the procedure I need to follow here. I am listing my steps here, please suggest the correct method

    1.Remove node B from the cluster

    2.Uninstall SQL server on node B

    3.Add the node b back to the cluster

    Is that right? Also, I have two drives local to each nodes is that correct?

    Thanks..

  • What are you planning to do? You intend to have a working SQL cluster at the end?

  • Please refer to this document for info on how to add or remove a node from clustering.
