SQL Server 2000 - Active/Active Windows 2003 Clustering

  • Is it possible to do active/active clustering with Windows 2003 and SQL Server 2000? We have an Active/Passive configuration and are questioning if we can do active/active. I can't seem to find information for this type of configuration.

    Thanks,

    Michael

  • Michael, yes it's possible as long as you use named instances. I'm working here with a active/active cluster running 12 instances 6 on each node.

    But you have to keep in mind that in a failover situation the remaining node must be able to host all instances and keep up at least acceptable perfomance.
