Rebooting a W2K Cluster - Anything to Watch Out For?

[GregE240]

Have done it a fair few times with '2003.....is W2K any different?

Its a 2 node SQL cluster.


Thanks,
Greg

Not really. Just make sure you do them one at a time (obviously).

They're more prone to not joining the cluster on reboot, but you'll spot that if it becomes an issue.

Everytime I reboot long running clusters, one of the services generally hangs so I end up with more downtime anyway (I hate the damned things).
