Hi,
Very simple question, yet to work on clustering
We will be configuring a 2 node active/passive cluster for one of the application.
Do we need to enable AlwaysOn for configuring this ?
Thanks in advance,
Smith.

Damn Microsoft marketing branding...
Always-On Failover Cluster Instances is one thing and Always-On availability Groups is another one. Together they're branded as "Always-On".
Since failover clustering had been around for 15 years, when SQL Server 2012 came out with his Always-On features, everybody refers to Always-On Availability Groups as simply Always-On.
/RANT
Long story short: you don't need to configure anything for always on if you're planning to install a failover cluster.
