  SQL FCI Instance certificates

  I have a client who has a requirement for certificates bound to the instance in a FCI environment. I have create the certificate and installed on both nodes, but I get a cluster error when failing over. The environment setup

  Node1

  Node2

  FCI Instance name\SQLInstance

   

  Have set the FCI and the certificate CN name and added the nodes as subject alternative names. Do I just request the cert from the active node and copy it to other nodes and add the thumbprint to the reg as well
