Re: Cluster Group and SQL Question

Would I have to rebuild the cluster to get another disk device if everything
is allocated now? It was not known at the time when the cluster was built
that we were going to install SQL.

Yes, you can install SQL Server 2005 into that cluster. However, the SQL
Server requires its own disk resources that are not shared with anything
else. You can't configure a disk device into multiple groups.

We have a cluster that has been running for a couple of years. It has
MSDE running on one node of the cluster. This cluster only has one group
on it and want to install SQL 2005. Would it install into this group?
Is it possible to have more than one group on one device? I was able to
get DTC working so I was thinking I could install SQL.

thanks
