I use MS SQL Server 200 in a cluster and I monitor it by the SQL Servername.
In Cluster server there should be 2 ip addresses on of the cluster and the other of the service that is clustered. Ex. Cluster name envclus Cluster Address 10.2.4.11 SQL Server name - SQL SQL Server IP Address 10.2.4.12 I would either montior it by name (which mostly your clients will have to resolve to or by the ip address of the service.

Just set up the send to disconnect: QUIT\r\n. I set up this service. It works find for a 'simple' server. However I have been asked to monitor this service on a server cluster (The cluster is made up of 2 servers with the use of Cluster Administration of Windows). I try to monitor the service on the IP address of the cluster (because I am not sure on which of the servers the service will be active). This does not work. I wonder why.
