Re: Installing SQL Server 2008 on a cluster

I found at least one potential workaround for this. It does appear to be a
bug with the SQL installer.
In my case it was failing consistently no matter what the results of running
the validation test. Finally I deleted all files out of
C:\Windows\Cluster\Reports on both nodes and ran it again. I verified there
was just one report in the above directory. But running the check again
failed saying there were errors or no verification report.
I then ran Process Monitor and filtered to only capture setup100.exe. I
reran the checks and it failed as expected. In the Process Monitor output I
did a search for Validation and found where it was trying to access the
validation report. It had the path right, but the name it was using was
differenct than the name of my report. Instead of "Validation Data For Node
Set C1DE6...xml" it was looking for "Validation Data For Node Set
D1A1B...xml". I couldn't find any references to this other ID anywhere.
I then copied the real Validation Data report on both nodes and renamed them
to be what the setup was expecting to fine. I reran the install checks and
this time it made it all the way through without error.

Can you check the Cluster Events under Failover Cluster Management and see
if there is anything related? Try re-running the Validate a Configuration
wizard once more on your existing cluster nodes and see if it will generate
related errors

Hello all,
Iam receiving a message while installing the SQL Server 2008 in a
cluster
environment.
Error : "Microsoft Cluster Service (MSCS) cluster verification errors"
failed. The cluster either has not been verified or there are errors or
failures in the verification report. Refer to KB953748 or SQL server
books
online for more information"
to resolve this I ran the "validate the cluster" tests under failover
cluster management. The validation was successful without any warnings
or
errors. Even then I still get the same error.
Could someone please help me out. I have been spending 2 days on this
and
just can't find a solution to this.
Thanks,
rl
