Hi Team,

Have a question regarding ceritifcates.

i was trying to load certificates on standalone and clusterred instances.

I was successfully in creating and loading the cerificate for a standalone machine where i used the certificate name same as the FQDN of the machine name and i was able to load the certificate into sql server 2005 server without any issues. am using makecert utility to create certificates.

Now i am confusion in clusttered instance. Do i need to create the certificate in node name or sql network name.
logically i dont think node name certificate creation would help bcz while failover it might create problems.
Am thinking it has to be created on sql network.

please correct me if am wrong.

Can anyone help me any reference for blogs or any articles of creation of certificates in clusterred instance???

That would be great help for me.

Thanks in advance.
