|
Enable the Microsoft failover clustering feature.
Ensure that you have met the hardware requirements for a failover cluster.
Run the Microsoft wizard to validate the configuration.
Use Failover Cluster Management to create the first node of the cluster.
Create the second node of the cluster.
Connect the two nodes.

See Creating disk groups and volumes.
|
In SFW on Node A, create two or more dynamic cluster disk groups on the storage, one or more for the application data files and one for the mirrored quorum. |
See Implementing a dynamic quorum resource.
|
If not done earlier, create a dynamic disk group for the quorum with a mirrored volume.
Add the volume manager disk group for the quorum.
Change the quorum resource to the dynamic mirrored quorum resource.

|
See Installing the application on the cluster nodes.
|
Install the application program files on the local drive of the first node.
Install files relating to the data and logs on the shared storage.
Move the cluster resources to the second node.
Make sure that the volumes on the second node have the same drive letters or mount points as they had on the first node.
Install the application on the second node.
|
See Completing the setup of the application group in the cluster.
|
Refer to the application documentation for help on creating its resource.
Establish the appropriate dependencies.
Test the application group by moving the cluster resources to the other node.
|
See Verifying the cluster configuration.
|
Verify the cluster configuration by either moving all the resource groups from one node to another or by simulating a failover by shutting down the active cluster node. |
