Can we install a new mssql cluster on the same windows cluster which already containes a mssql cluster with named instance

We have a MSSQL 2008R2 Enterprise edition with a two node active passive fail-over cluster running on 2008R2 windows cluster with out any issues,
Now my question is can we add one more MSSSQL cluster instance for the same setup with out disturbing the existing one ?
Also give thoughts on load sharing as the second node is mostly ideal now except fail-over scenarios,
Why we go for this situation is because of the collation setting which can be set only one per instance(Database collation setting change not working), we need a different default collation for the new setup

hi,
>>Now my question is can we add one more MSSSQL cluster instance for the same setup with out disturbing the existing one ?
Yes it is possible .You need to add new drives as cluster aware and install SQL server and put data and log files on thse drives.YOu would need to create named instance of SQL server and need to create different resource group.Both old installation and new
onw would work separately.
>>Also give thoughts on load sharing as the second node is mostly ideal now except fail-over scenarios,
Good point indeed.You are about to create Multi instance cluster and should plan for scenario where one node is down and other node is handling load for both instances.Memory and CPU should be enough to handle the load.
>>Why we go for this situation is because of the collation setting which can be set only one per instance(Database collation setting change not working), we need a different default collation for the new setup .
Just for collation if you are installing new instance seems little wierd to me.You can manage collation at column ,database and at server level.

  • Can we install Oracle 8i and 10g on the same windows server?

    I would like to install the Oracle server 8i and 10g on the same windows server? Is this possible.
    Forgive me if this question is already asked.
    Thanks in advance!

    WHICH Windows version? (There's more than one). It would be useful to be a little bit more precise (NT,2000,XP,2003, 32/64 bit) .
    For NT and 2000 it is possible to have both 8i and 10g, for XP and 2003 there's no support for 8i at all.

    Hi Lanjun,
    I know you can install both of them together on one computer. I had a document specifying the steps, but cannot find it now. The problem is that you cannot create a new 2004 company or upgrade your 2004 version.
    I will look for the document and let you know.

  • Can I install two different iPhoto applications on the same Mac?

    Can I install two different iPhoto applications on the same Mac?

    Please explain in more detail what you are wanting to do.
    Do you want to have two different versions of iPhoto, have two different Libraries or Share iPhoto with multiple users?
    Two different iPhoto versions (06 and 08, 08 and 09 for examples) is a problem and I say no because the older version can not use a Library that the newer version has modified. 
    For iPhoto support articles, see >  Apple - Support - Mac Apps - iPhoto
    To Share a Library with other users, see > iPhoto: Sharing libraries among multiple users
    To Move a Library, see > iPhoto '11: Move your iPhoto library to a new location

    No. The only people that can help you are at an Apple store.
    Just how in the world did you forget a Boot EFI password?
    Next time you buy a computer don't set a EFI/BOIS password. If you must WRITE IT DOWN so you can always refer to it.

    Both can coexist in the same box.

  • How can I use a new mobile number under the same Apple--ID?

    Hello there.
    Since few days I habe an 5S with a new number. But I can't use FaceTime or iMessage with it. Im Setzlings is still my old number and I can't change it. When I logged in in my Apple-Account and changed my number and saved it, there is still my old number at the settings. Do you have an idea?
    TA.

    Log out of your Apple ID with iMessage at Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > Apple ID. Select your Apple ID and at the menu window that appears, select Sign Out. Follow this by turning iMessage off.
    Turn iMessage back on and try to re-authorize your iPhone with your Apple ID with iMessage which should register your new cell phone number.

  • Can I install two versions of NW in the same server?

    I have BW installed in a server running on Netweaver 7.3. but I need to install Netweaver 7.02 to do some tests, is it possible to install this other version in the same server? or will there be conflicts after the installation of the second version?
    Thanks in advance,
    Luis.

    HI,
    sapinst detects existing instances, and makes sure that you dont use the same instance numbers => same tcp ip ports for diferent sap instances, wich would cause conflits.
    so in the limit you can install any number os sap systems on the same host, given you have enought hardware resourses.
    best regards,

  • How to install a new oracle 9i  in the same server where a 8i is installed

    Hello and sorry for been an inexperience dba.
    Now I need to install 9i oracle version in the same server (solaris os-5.9) where is previously installed a 8i. I'm reading the installation guide and I know that I have to make two different oracle home, and then two different owners .
    My problem is when I've seen the kernel parameters and their permissions and of course all of them have the owner the old oracle user.
    Do you know if I have to change some of this parameters?
    How to do that, and where can I find some guide to follow ?
    thanks in advance

    and then two different owners .Not necessarily, you can use the same OS user, of course on a different Oracle Home.
    where can I find some guide to follow ?http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/html/A96167_01/pre.htm#sthref106
