I have a 2 node cluster running Win2000 Advanced Server and MSCS. Clustering appears to be working fine. Both servers are also primary domain controllers.

When installing SQL2000 Enterprise, it gets to the last step...

Setup is performing required operations on cluster nodes. This may take a few minutes...

After a few minutes I get...

Setup failed to perform required operations on the cluster nodes

Would seem that this is a problem accessing the second node, but first server can access the seconds administrative shares just fine. Service Account and Admin account are domain admins and I can log into 2nd server directly just fine with either account. Also tried installing from install cd contents copied to a new shared directory on server 1. Same result. Both machines are identically configured.

This following is an excerpt from the SQL install log on the second server...

Thanks for all your help!! Where was everyone on this one?

Anywho...the problem has been solved after working through it with a Microsoft SQL support rep. The key is to not follow directions exactly.

Sorry for no response, just no experience/knowledge in this area. I am planning on putting up a SQL Server 2K cluster later this year, so would appreciate it if you would share what MS told you.

TIA solart

Is that the entire SqlstpN.log? There usually are some more information like "Setup could not find the specified file" and such. On www.googlecom it seams that your error in the log (50044) points to just that.

Are you installing from a CD? If so is that CD shared so that the other server can reach it? Try copying the files to the local drive before installing.

Other KB's that might help:
