    Dear All,

    The next step is to install MS SQL Server 2008 on this clustered servers.I need to know an special process to consider or the best installation option that will give high availability.

    Do I have to do SQL Server 2008 clustering?

    Regards,

    Consider log mirroring as it could be much faster compared to generic failover cluster.

    Hi,
     
    According to the description, the issue seems to be related to SQL Server. As we mainly focus on the High Availability question about Windows Server system and here is not the best support resource for SQL Server, it is recommend you to get further support in the corresponding community so that you can get the most qualified pool of respondents. Thanks for your understanding.
