Author  Topic  sawag Starting Member 5 Posts Posted - 2010-09-04 : 08:18:31 Hi, I am trying to configure SQL 2005 cluster in vmware workstation on windows 2003 R2 with SP2. First i have configured the windows cluster then installed sql 2005 on top of it. Now on node1 it showes all the Microsoft SQL server data folders on a shared storage and all the resources are online. when i move the resources from node1 to node2, it does not show anything on shared storage and sql server services could not come up in cluster administrator with failed status. Now when i move back the resouces from node2 to node1, it deletes everything from the shared storage. Please guide what is the possible reason.
