MSDTC set up in SQL Server 2008 failover cluster

Hi Guys,
I am in the process of setting up failover cluster using SQL Server 2008  (64Bit) Enterprise on Windows Server 2008 R2 (64Bit) I have completed almost all the works but I got few questions regarding MSDTC configuration whether the MSDTC disk should
be assigned from SAN or it should be local to the disk ,  Separate disk for each nodes in the cluter or 1 disk to be used across all the servers for MSDTC in windows fail over cluster.
With regards, Gopinath.

Hi Gopinath,
Please review the following similar blogs to get more details about configuring MDTC and pros & cons of different options.

  • SQL Server 2012 Failover Cluster configuration questions

    Hi,
    I have few questions on , SQL Server 2012 Failover cluserting pleasse provide suggestions:
    1) In SQL Server 2012 is there a configuration for active / passive Failover Cluster installation? If so how is it done? if you could provide any links or articles that would help.
    OR 
    Is this been replaced by Always ON Availability Groups?
    2) Also in our environment we have done active/active installation but at a time my understanding is only node has the ownership to the shared storage versus both the nodes, is that correct? If not please provide an explanation?
    Any additional information would be valuable in clearing my doubts?
    Thank youy
    Malini=

    Hi malinisethi,
    If you install SQL Server in a cluster and configure Active-Passive cluster. In the first node, select “New SQL Server Failover Cluster installation” option , when we are installing Active-Passive cluster, we have to specify one virtual/network name. (Note:
    For Active-Active clustering you have specify different network names as per the number of nodes). on the other nodes is similar to installing on the first node except that we have select the Add Node to a SQL Server failover cluster option from the initial
    menu. For more information, there is a similar issue about SQL Server 2008 Active-Passive/Active-Active cluster installation, you can review the following article.
    http://sqldbpool.com/2009/10/07/sql-server-2008-active-passive-cluster-installation/
    About Active/Active SQL Cluster, two clustered SQL Server instance are created in different nodes. Then apply Active /Active configuration of both instance. There is an example about creating an Active/Active SQL Cluster using Hyper-V. you can review the
    following article.

  • Question about updating SQL Server on failover cluster

    Hi all,
    I would like to better understand the update process of SQL Server (2008 r2) in a failover cluster environment.
    In our cluster we have 4 instances of SQL running, where two of them I am able to at anytime stop the instance and update it.
    The question is... Applying the latest update, will update forcibly all instances installed on that node, or do I have the ability to choose which instance I want to update?
    This way, I could "test" the update process in those two SQL Instances, as described in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/958734 and after finishing I would update the remaining instances.
    Please let me know.
    Thanks in advance.
    Nuno Silva

    Hi Nuno,
    It's a failover cluster issue, I moved it to SQL Server High Availability and Disaster Recovery. So that you can get better help.

  • Update SQL Server 2008 R2 CLUSTER To SP1 With TFS 2010

    Hi,
    I have Cluster SQL Server 2008 R2 configured to store  Team Foundation Server 2010 DBs
    I want to Update this Cluster to SP1 to support Sharepoint DBs 
    So i want to see if this update can impact my TFS DBs 
    Thnx
    vote if you think useful

    Hello,
    I which way is this "Database Design" related, the Topic of this forum?
    You can install the SP 1 without any harm to your TFS 2010 database; we host them on SQL Server 2012 and also this work.
    But instead of the old SP1 you should go with the last SP 3 for SQL Server 2008 R2.

  • SQL Server 2012 Failover Cluster Setup

    I have to set up a Lab Test environment for SQL Server 2012 with failover clustering. What are the most cost effective specifications for H\W & S\W.  AFAIK Apart of Enterprise edition, Standard edition can support failover clustering for upto
    2 nodes with one node in passive mode. Somewhere (Here) I got that it is possible to configure SQL Server failover clustering On SQL
    Server 2012 Developer edition. Also Is it possible to use Windows 7 Platform with SQL Server 2012 Developer Edition for configuring Always on Failover Clustering. Although I have researched alot, but puzzled. Seeking for experts advise. Thanks in advance.

    Yes you can configure and install in windows 7.. but make sure you have made all the proper updates as per the microsoft suggestion..

  • MS SQL Server 2008 Metro Cluster with same subnet

    Hi All,
    I want to setup SQL 2008 Active / Passive Cluster for OCS 2007 between two Data centers, Both DCs are same location which building 1(DC1) and building 2(DC2).
    I am planning to use Hyper-V cluster between two DCs and then create SQL 2008 VMs then  create another windows 2008 with SQL clusters.
    For the above solution, I need to use ISCSI based EMC VNX-e storages on both DCs and do the replication.
    Is there any other better solution to perform? Please help me to provide more infromation.

    Hi,
    Additional, we recommend that your clustered servers be member servers. If they are, you need an additional server that acts as the domain controller in the domain that contains
    your failover cluster.

  • Windows Server 2008 failover cluster in VirtualBox

    Hi,
    I'm a Windows NT student and I need help with understanding how to do clustering using multiple Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise servers in VirtualBox 4.3.8. I have a Windows 7 host computer. I was wondering if someone could provide clearly detailed step-by-step
    directions (ex. Click this, then click that) on what I need to do prior to clustering, as well as starting the clustering process. Please ask if you need additional information. 
    Thank You.

    I'm sorry. I'm such a noob. Should I have 3 virtual machines, where one is the domain controller and the other 2 are nodes? Or is it ok to just have 2 virtual machines?
    It's optional. You just need your both cluster nodes (VMs) belong to the same domain. It can be own domain serviced by your private VM or it can be "external" one. See:
    Using Guest Clustering for High Availability
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn440540.aspx
    Active Directory domain requirements
    Failover clusters require that nodes of the same cluster are members of the same Active Directory domain. However, there is no requirement that a guest cluster belongs to the same Active Directory
    domain as the physical hosts on which the virtual machines are running.
    Also you'll need some shared storage. See (same URL as above):
    Storage options
    The following tables lists the storage types that you can use to provide shared storage for a guest cluster.
    Storage Type
    Description
    Shared virtual hard disk
    New in Windows Server 2012 R2, you can configure multiple virtual machines to connect to and use a single virtual hard disk (.vhdx) file. Each virtual machine can access the virtual hard disk
    just like servers would connect to the same LUN in a storage area network (SAN). For more information, see Deploy a Guest Cluster Using a Shared Virtual
    Hard Disk.
    Virtual Fibre Channel
    Introduced in Windows Server 2012, virtual Fibre Channel enables you to connect virtual machines to LUNs on a Fibre Channel SAN. For more information, see Hyper-V
    Virtual Fibre Channel Overview.
    iSCSI
    The iSCSI initiator inside a virtual machine enables you to connect over the network to an iSCSI target. For more information, see iSCSI
    Target Block Storage Overview and the blog post Introduction of iSCSI Target
    in Windows Server 2012.
    Shared VHDX is out as you don't have proper software (Windows 7 is not supported as a host and Windows 2008 R2 does not support shared VHDX as a guest), virtual Fibre Channel is out as you again don't have Windows Server 2012 R2 (and don't have any FC gear).
    So iSCSI is your only choice. Either spawn dedicated Windows (or other OS if you like UNIX) VM with iSCSI stack or use third-party Windows software running on your host. Windows Server 2008 R2 does not have iSCSI target embedded so you can get it here:
    MSFT iSCSI Target 3.3 Download
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=19867
    Good luck and happy clustering :)

  • Applying Service Pack on multiple instance SQL Server 2008 R2 Cluster and Standalone.

    Friends,
    Its my first time I am applying Service pack to both Standalone and Clustered SQL 2008 R2 servers. I have multiple instances running on both stand alone and Clustered environment. I don't know how to apply pack with multiple instances. Do I need to apply
    the service pack each instance one by one or I can just run the pack to each node of cluster and each box of stand alone server? Will I get any multi instance selection option during the installation process so that I can select multiple instances at once??

    When installing service pack for multiple instances in a standalone machine, you just run the installer and it lists all the instances eligible for the update. You could do it one by one or do it at the same time. Doing it at the same time saves time and
    energy. If you selected multiple instances then you dont have to do anything else.
    In case of cluster, if you have multiple instances then you need to be little careful.
    Eg: Assume you have a 2 node cluster Node 1 and Node 2. Two instances Instance 1 active on Node 1 and Instance 2 active on Node 2. What I would do in this case is to first failover any one instance to the passive node. Assume I failed over Instance 2 to
    Node 1. Now Node 1 is active node for both instance 1 and instance 2 and Node 2 is passive for both instances. At this point I run the service pack on Node 2. Once patching is done, I reboot the node and then failover the instaces one by one to Node
    2. At this point both instances 1 and 2 would get upgraded and will be active in Node2. Now Node 1 is passive and so run the update there. Once the service pack is installed, reboot and then fail back Instance 1 back to Node 1. Note: I would also failover
    Instance 2 to Node 1 just to confirm that failover works completely after service pack update.

    Hi Manne,
    As your description, you come across an error when trying to install SQL Server 2008 express Service Pack 1 on windows XP Service Pack 3 machine. From your error log, I get the error(unable to read registry value). As my analysis, the issue could be due
    to that your account doesn't have access to registry. Below are the recommendations for troubleshooting the issue.
    1. Make sure that you log in as an administrator of the machine.
    2. Please follow the steps below to make sure that you have granted the right permission to registry.
    a. Located HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server in registry.
    b. Right click and go to Permission, then you could see user accounts or groups. If your user account is not in the list, you could click Add to add your account there.
    c. Select your account and Click on Advance.
    d. Check on both check box ('Include inheritable permissions from this object's parent'.
    and 'Replace all child object permissions with inheritable permissions from this object'), click OK.
    e. Click OK again.
    Regards,

  • Is ODI compatible with Microsoft SQL Server 2008??

    Hi,
    We are trying to set ODI for SQL Server 2008 but we are getting an error: "connection failed". I do not know if the problem is the driver or the incompatibility between ODI and SQL Server 2008.
    Does someone use them together? Are compatible?
    If the response is yes, where is the problem? We are using the following JDBC driver:
    com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver
    jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://<host>:<port>
    And we have download the sqljdbc_2.0 driver.
    Thank you very much,
    Araitz.-

    Hi Araitz,
    I have ODI Connecting to a Master and Work Repository on SQL Server 2008
    Couple of things:
    - Have you put the JDBC driver in the drivers folder of you ODI installation?
    - In terms of the connection strings, your driver name seems OK; This is the string I have for my URL - jdbc:sqlserver://localhost:1433;databaseName=odimaster; IntegratedSecurity=false
    For the user name and password, put those in the connection area. By using IntegratedSecurity=false, you are forcing the password to be picked up from the connection area and not trying to use your AD credentials
    Note - The connection string contains odimaster (this is for our ODI Designer login)
    Hope this helps.
    Best Regards,
    geeo

    we have a 2 node active passive sql server 2008 r2 cluster. We plan to add a third node on temp basis to the cluster. As one old nodes will be removed. As standard edition of sql support 2 nodes, can we add third node to it ??

    Hi,
    There is no way to add a 3rd node without doing an EDITION UPGRADE from Standard to Enterprise. It is by design.
    Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 Standard Edition supports up to two nodes in a failover cluster.
    Check out the following MSDN article for more information:
    Features Supported by the Editions of SQL Server 2008 R2
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc645993(v=sql.105).ASPX
    Thanks.

  • MS DTC not coming online on SQL Server 2008 R2 failover cluster

    Dear Experts,
    On a SQL Server 2008 R2 failover cluster, MS DTC cluster service is not coming online. It fails with below error message.
    "The DTC cluster resource's log file path was originally configured at: E:. Attempting to change that to: M:. This indicates a change in the path of the DTC cluster resource's dependent disk resource.  This is not supported. The error code
    returned: 0x8000FFFF".
    From the Component Services, we can see under the clustered DTCs, in the properties of the log file that it is configured for E drive. The 'Transaction list' and 'Transaction Statistics' are empty. When I try to change the log file path to
    point to M drive I get this warning message.
    "An MSDTC log file already exists in the selected directory. Resetting an existing MS DTC log file may cause your databases and other transactional resource managers to become inconistent. Please review the MSDTC Administrator's manual before
    proceeding. Do you wish to reset the existing MS DTC log"
    Could you please advise if this is safe to proceed with this warning as the  'Transaction list' and 'Transaction Statistics' are empty or would it cause any other issue.
    Thanks,
    MM

    Did you tried using wmi....win32_share
    $path = "location where to create the folder"
    $share = $Shares=[WMICLASS]'WIN32_Share'   # class in wmi for share
    $Sharename = 'Sharename'
    New-Item -type directory -Path $Path
    $Shares.Create($Path,$Sharename,0,255,$Sharename)
    $Acl = Get-Acl $Path  # cmdlet for getting access control list
    $Access = New-Object system.security.accesscontrol.filesystemaccessrule("Username","FullControl","ContainerInherit, ObjectInherit", "None", "Allow")
    $Acl.AddAccessRule($Access)
    Set-Acl $Path $Acl
    Thanks Azam When you see answers please Mark as Answer if Helpful..vote as helpful.

  • Error on setup failover cluster with Windows 2008 R2 enterprise and SQL Server 2008 R2 (also with SP1)

    Hi!
    The setup process fails with this error:
      Configuration error code:     
    0x1C2074D8@1216@1
      Configuration error description: There was an error setting private property 'VirtualServerName' to value 'CLUSTER02' for resource 'SQL Server'.  Error: Value does not fall within the expected range.
    I have found some hints by google, but nothing really helpfull.
    Has anyone had a simular problem when installing SQL server 2008 R2?
    All posts I found are about sql server 2008 (no R2!).
    The cluster itself is working (storage, network, msdtc, quorum...).
    Any hints?
    Andreas

    Hi Andreas Plachy,
    Please make sure that the Virtual Server Name ‘CLUSTER02’ is unique on the network. In addition, are there any resources named ‘SQL Server’ on the Windows cluster? If that is the case, you may need to rename the related resources to avoid conflicting with
    SQL Server, and try again.
