Install SQL Server 2008 on a Windows Server 2008 Cluster

  • I need to install SQL Server 2008 on a Windows Server 2008 Cluster.

    Please provide the prerequisites and step by step procedure.

  • Since you need ALL the work done on your behalf, contact a good consulting company who will be more than willing to charge you for a full implementation and documentation as required.

  • SQL FineBuild can help you build your SQL Cluster.

    As you are new to both FineBuild and clustering, I strongly recommend you get a virtual machine and practice installing SQL non-clustered before you do a cluster install with FineBuild.

    As the FineBuild Reference Manual says: FineBuild can make it easy for you to install a SQL Cluster, but it cannot give you the skills to run a cluster successfully.

    Clustering introduces new and interesting ways to trash your server. Build your first cluster on virtual machines, and take the time to do thing that might break the cluster and work out how to recover from them. Otherwise you may end up in Production with a dead cluster and no idea on what to do next.
