Question, and please excuse my ignorance as I am not a developer.

Currently I am working with an application that has a SP that calls the instance name (usually default), stores it and uses this information along with the database name and a key to license the product.

My question is, what is the syntax or command that I could use in a SP that would call the node name or virtual server name of a SQL 2 node cluster ?

The issue is , this database will be part of an active/active cluster and the database will live on one of the nodes unless a failure occurs. But the issue is , if a failure occurs, the machine name and possibly the instance name will change upon failover. I would rather point this SP license to the node name / cluster name of the SQL Cluster.

Thanks in advance to everyone !
