server cluster is fully operational. Now you can install cluster
resources, such as file shares, printer spoolers, cluster aware
services like IIS, Message Queuing, Distributed Transaction
Coordinator, DHCP, WINS, or cluster aware applications like
Exchange or SQL Server.
The preparation for the Windows Server 2003 Cluster Service follows the
same guidelines as that of the Windows 2000 Cluster Service. The
following is assumed to have already been done:
•
Installation of the controller and configuration of the controller for
cluster operation. Refer to Procedure to Install and Configure Your
system as Part of a cluster in the this chapter.
•
The Windows Server 2003 driver for the RAID controller has been
installed. The procedures are similar to those in
Installation Instructions under Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced
Server"
in this chapter.
•
Network requirements have been met.
•
Shared disk requirements have been met.
Before you begin the Cluster Service Software installation on the first
node, make sure that all other nodes are either powered down or
stopped and all shared storage devices are powered on.
This checklist helps you prepare for installation. Step-by-step instructions
