SP4 on cluster

  • February 3, 2006 at 7:39 am

    #91492

    We have a 4 node cluster with 4 seperate virtual server names, each with an instance of SQL2000.

                      Owns

    Node A -     SQL1HQ/SUN & SQL4HQ

    Node B -     SQL2HQ/CMS

    Node C -     SQL3HQ/HR

    Node D -     PASSIVE

     

    One of the instances has the database for a product that won't support SP4. Does this mean that 1) we can't patch any of them as the instance may fail over to one of the other nodes, or 2) as they are seperate virtual servers we can patch all other instances except the not supported one as when it fails over it will still use the tools for sp3a.

    Please help.

     

    Thanks

    They are separate virtual servers, so you can upgrade each instance separately that won't affect the others. I mean, upgrade all yuor instances but not the one that doesn't support SP4.
