I take you still need the Quorum Disk and MSDTC etc etc, I know you can have cluster nodes on different networks now ( limitation on the clusters below that)
Just looking for any gotchas that folks seen when they set up there clusters, Z Edward E.

My recommendations for hardware are always the same: buy the best your money will give you, and ensure that you include a support contract. Regards, Michael B.

Been asked for specifications on a new cluster accordingly, and I haven't done any Windows 2008 Clustering yet, and just want to make sure I don't miss anything. Using EMC VMAX san and Qlogic 8GB HBA's and the new SAN is SCP-3 Compliant. Feel free to ping me off list, if you have done some clustering builds with Windows 2008/Windows 2008R2, be interested if there is any gotchas as compared to windows 2003 R2 clustering. Z Edward E.
