  • Hi Adiga

    Thank you for the link. I already read this link but the Q is "How I have to chage in a clustered environement?"

    I'm running Windows 2008 SP2 Enterprise and SQL Server 2008 SP2 Enterprise and in Cluster.

    What I have to do to change from dynamic port to static port?

    Do you have any ideas?

    Thank you.

  • Hi all

    I found the solution. It is so simple.:-D

    In "SQL Server Configuration Manager" under "SQL Server Network Configuration" / "TCP/IP" -Properties - IP Addresses - IP ALL

    Clear TCP Dynamic Port

    Set TCP Port as you like

    After that change restart SQL Service and check port settings.

    Do a failover and check port setting on the ohter nodes

    Done.

    Have a nice day.

  • Don't forget to configure your Windows firewall to open the port you just changed it to.
