| I have just taken on SQL DBA duties and am still very unfamiliar with it.My first task has been to install the most recent hotfixs (post SP2) on all of our SQL servers. I have been able to successfully install these hotfixes on our "stand alone" sql boxes with no trouble. However, when I go to install it on the cluster and fail one machine over to the other, SQL refuses to come up.I have followed the instructions in the readme.txt for cluster installation, but SQL will not come up following these instructions. Once the hotfix has been backed out, SQL comes up as usual.I would appreciate any feedback on this issue as I have been unable to find any documentation on it thus far.Thank you,Adria Carboa-carbo@tamu.eduCIS, TAMU |

| Does SQL attempt to start? Check the errorlogs(mssql\log\errorlog) to see if there is any indication as to why it isn't starting. -Chad |
