SQL Server 2008 :: Change IP Address Of Failover Cluster Instances
Mar 9, 2011
IF you need to change the IP Address of a SQL Server Failover Cluster instance, here is the steps:
1. Open up Failover Cluster manager.
2. Expand the MS Cluster Instance that your SQL Cluster instance resides on.
3. Expand Services and applications.
4. Select the SQL Server Service.
5. In the main window pane (Middle Screen), you should see your SQL Server Cluster name, expand the plus to the left of it.
6. Under your SQL Server Cluster name, you should now see an 'IP address' section, right click on it and go to properties.
7. In the properties pane, you can change your IP address by entering a static IP.....or assigning a DHCP enabled IP.
if it is supported to install Reporting Services on both the active and passive nodes in an SQL Server Failover Cluster and use the non-active node as a warm standby?We have relatively simple reporting requirements so the idea would be that if Node 1 went down, we could just repoint our users are Node 2 temporarily. Both reporting services instances would be configured to target the same SSRS database running on the SQL Cluster.
I am asking about a virtual IP for SQL Server, is there a way we can assign a different IP to SQL Server other than the server's(host) IP address? like the same what we do in a clustered env.
Hi all,I have recently changed IP addresses on my MS SQL cluster (the new IPaddresses belongs to a different network). Both physical node's IPaddresses and resource's IP addresses have been changed.Everything seems to work fine. The cluster is up and respondingnormally. The resources failover to another node when needed correctly.However, I have noticed that the time it takes for the resource tofailover to another node is much longer than in the past (before IPaddresses change). I have noticed that "Network Name" is the resourcetype that causes the delay. Could you please advise if there issomething that I overlooked and needs to be changed.updated as well, sothat groups fail over faster?Thanks,Aleu
1. Once fail over to secondary replica, what will happen to connected session in primary node? can the session fail over to secondary seamlessly or need to re-login. what happen committed transactions which has not write to disk. 2. Assume I have always on cluster with three nodes, if primary fails, how second node make write/ read mode. 3. after fail over done to 2nd secondary node what mode in production(readonly or read write). 4. how to rollback to production primary ,will change data in secondary will get updated in primary.

We have 2 nodes window Server 2012 R2 and SQL Server 2012 Enterprise Version cluster setup. We can switch roles and Node to one node to another and revert back to previous node with out any issues. But we are facing when one Node is restarted. We could not restart that Node in cluster Service start in Failover cluster Manager. Error Details is displayed as below inside double code."Cluster node NODE1 could not to join the cluster because it failed to communicate over the network with any other node in the cluster. Verify the network connectivity and configuration of any network firewalls."
I checked windows firewall. windows firewall is all of in Node1, Node2, SAN and DC.I have disabled and enabled the Internal and private network of Node 1. I have validated the cluster. it is showing no error though.
Node1: Public IP: 10.10.0.11 SubNet Mask:255.255.255.0 Default Getway: 10.10.0.1 Prefered DNS: 10.10.0.10 (Ip of DNS)
[code]....
Private Network: Not configured.pinging to each other ip is successful from one node to another.
We have sql server 2005 installed locally on 2 servers and want to set up failover clustering. Do we need to uninstall what we have then install as failover cluster? Thanks.
I an involved in a project that will have five sql server instances on an NT cluster. I cannot find anywhere on Technet info on what happens when a single instance fails. Do they all have to fail over or just the failed instance. This is important so that we get the disk layout correct.
Can anybody help ? or point me to any docs on this.
I have a production failover cluster running SQL Server 2000 at SP3that I want to upgrade to SP4. I do not have a test failover clusterto test with so I need the install on the primary server to work thefirst time. Per the information I have I just install the patch on theprimary server and it will install both on the primary and on thesecondary.However, I remember when I did the initial install and it failed. Thefirst problem traced to the fact that the install uses temporary filesunder the profile of the installing administrator and the id had neverlogged into the second server so the install failed on creating thetemporary file. The was a second problem that related to an OS featurethat had to be off for the install to work.If anyone out there has done this upgrade and remembers encountering aproblem and its fix/workaround I would appreciate a head up warning.Thank you-- Mark D Powell --
I have installed 2 node windows Fail-over clusters successfully. But QUARUM Configuration is not appearing in Failover cluster manager instead "Witness: Disk (Disk Cluster 4)". I have also configured quarum configuration from Quarum "Configure Cluster QUARUM Settings". I have attached the snapshots of windows cluster configuration. Is it the issue or not. I have not got any warning and error during cluster validation while installing Windows failover cluster. I am assuming it is okay and i can move ahead to installation of SQL Failover cluster setup.

When using this connection string, the connection to MAIN is alrigth, but when we simulate a unavailability situation on "MyBase" or on the entire MAIN instance, the new connection are joining the MAIN and not the BCKUP SQL Server.
We tryed several Connection Strings including Failover_Partner, Initliag Catalog instead of database... but no one succed in joining the BCKUP SQL Server.
I precise that the DNS on the PC that connect to SQL server is configured and both MAIN and BCKUP are resolved in command line or in explorer.
Is there an other driver that must be used, or is there an other parameter to set in the connection string ?

Hello All, I am trying the following script to upgrade SQL Server 2005 SP1 to SP2. I have an Active Passive cluster configuration. I have default instances of SQL Server. I am using the following script.
The sql server install fails to run. When I used the above command with just
start /wait c:1sqlserversp2SQLSERVER2005SP2-KB921896-x86-ENU.exe /quiet still the summary.txt file came with authentication success and that is all. I changed the above script and did
start /wait c:1sqlserversp2SQLSERVER2005SP2-KB921896-x86-ENU.exe /instancename=instancename of the cluster
This worked, however the install patched the passive node (DB engine, all the cluster unaware components) but failed to patch the DB engine on the Active node. I had to run the SQL Server sp2 install manually but still it did not patch the DB engine on the primary node
1. Can someone please help me with this issue as I want the unattended install to work. so it installs both active and passive node. I will post the final output and also the ADS script to do this as a bonus if this works.
Here is the summary.txt file.

I am new to SQL Server 2012 clustering.I added a new instance to one of the two nodes.when I try to move it to the other node it fails.Do I need to install it on both?If so, what options do you install on the second node?
We have a new failover cluster (Windows 2003 SP1, Microsoft SQL 2000 SP4) with each node of the cluster hosting 7 SQL Server instances in a 2-node active-active configuration connected to a SAN. We are planning to move some SQL Server Instances(from existing stand-alone servers) into this Cluster. Any insight into the process of moving SQL Servers into the cluster would be highly appreciated.
Is it possible to have more than one instance of SQL Server on a failover Active/Passive cluster? What are the concerns/ramifications if that indeed is possible?
In QA we have a two-node cluster with four instances of sql. In trying to add a fifth, I was given an IP address already in use so the install hung.
I removed it from the cluster but it is still there in the registry etc on the node I was working on.
I read about using the maintenance tab of the sql server install to "remove a node" but the terminology is confusing. To me a node is a physical server and an instance is an instance of sql server -- not the same at all but they are often referred to as the same thing.
I definitely don't want to remove one of the servers from the cluster.
I have been facing following Error in Failover cluster setup as below. I have prepared 2 node and 2 instance sql server failover cluster on top of windows failover.I have deleted MTCBJINS07 in AD and recreated even after, problem is not solved. MTCBJINS07 is my 2nd sql instance sql server network name.
Cluster network name resource 'SQL Network Name (MTCBJINS07)' failed registration of one or more associated DNS name(s) for the following reason:
DNS bad key.Ensure that the network adapters associated with dependent IP address resources are configured with at least one accessible DNS server.
Curious on how this will work.. if i install sql 2005 standard edition on one virtual server.. to a fixed disk (actually 2 fixed disks.. one for C, one for D).. then install another 2005 standard edition on another virtual server.. do i just rerun the setup and suddenly the failover cluster option will NOT be greyed out?
I am intsalling SQL 2005 in an activepassive cluster. The OS is Windows 2003 with SP1. Everything installs OK but the sql server service cannot start afterwards. There are many access errors in the Security Event log - see example below - and numerous "SSPI handshake failed with error code 0x8009030c while establishing a connection with integrated security; the connection has been closed. " errors in both the SQL and Application event logs. I have tried installing SQL in both mixed mode and under Windows Authentication and get the same errors. I can install SQL 2005 outside of the cluster on both nodes. Other items of note: This was a SQL 2000 cluster. I uninstalled SQL 2K, the virtual name was changed (IP remained the same) and the DNS entry was updated to reflect the new name. Early in the installation process - 3 or 4 days ago - I got a few errors about the Server Principal Name had to be updated but when I do a setspn -l the both nodes are listed and the entries look fine, though there are no entries for the sql service (MSSQLSvc). Not sure if there should be entries for the virtual name, but there aren't any for either the old or new name. Does the new virtual name need to be added to AD? Here is the security error - Event ID is 560 and it looks like there's a problem with Remote Access and is generated when trying to access either node: Category: Object Access Type: Failure Audit Event_ID: 560 User: NT AuthorityNetwork Service Object Open: Object Server: SC Manager Object Type: SERVICE OBJECT Object Name: RemoteAccess Handle ID: - Operation ID: {0,134558507} Process ID: 1516 Image File Name: C:WINDOWSsystem32services.exe Primary User Name: CM-OHCO-DS006B$ Primary Domain: SWNA Primary Logon ID: (0x0,0x3E7) Client User Name: NETWORK SERVICE Client Domain: NT AUTHORITY Client Logon ID: (0x0,0x3E4) Accesses: Query status of service
One other informational message that may be of use - looks like there's a problem with dll's for remote access, though this isn't pertaining to SQL: The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( srmservice ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: srmservice error: 0, Started the agent (srmagent.exe)..
I am trying to install multi instances on my server cluster 2003 R2 Sp2. Because of the compatibility issues with my services I need to install both SQL 2000 and 2005. With 2000 I can easily specify the instance and servername. The server name can be the same, but the instance has to be different. Is this true for 2005? I have found so far that for every new instance that you create that you need to have a different virtual server name. How can you utilize the same virtual name and have multi insances
I have destroyed the cluster in failover cluster manager and then i am trying to remove node from the sql server installation centre.I am facing the cluster node and cluster service verification errors.I am not able to start the cluster service in services as well.
we have a server (Windows server 2008 R2 Standard) that runs a hyper V manager.The Hyper V manager runs 2 virtual servers.
One of the virtual servers uses the software XAMPP (it’s a web portal). The local IP for the virtual machine is 192.168.0.xxx
I have configured the XAMPP in a way so that any user in our domain can access the portal when the user writes the ip address in the web browser.Instead of the ip address, I want the user to be able to write a specific given name.
We have a SQL 2014 active passive cluster with 5 instances. When the cluster was installed one of the nodes was a virtual machine. As we started to have problems and this is not a Microsoft supported configuration we decided to replace the virtual node with a phyiscal one. On 3 of these 5 instances we configured static ports (1433 TCP) this was required for applications and firewall implementation.
Now with the physical node joined to the cluster we have issues with these three instances. Whenever one of these instances is moved to the passive node the server authentication is changed from mixed to windows only. I'm no SQL expert at all but to me it looks like the configuration of the instances are not replicated to the passive node? I found some similar problems on the net but these are mostly under sql 2008.
