Microsoft Cluster Server (MSCS) is the clustering solution for computers running Windows NT Server. MSCS version 1.0 supports clusters of two specially linked servers running Windows NT Server. If one server in a cluster fails or is taken offline, the other server takes over the failed server's operations.
Note MTS 2.0 cluster support does not work with pre-release versions of Microsoft Cluster Server. Installing MTS 2.0 with a pre-release version of Microsoft Cluster Server will prevent MSCS from functioning properly.
For more information on MSCS, see Windows NT Books Online.
To install MTS with Microsoft Cluster Server
Do not run MTS setup in parallel on cluster nodes. Completely install MTS on one node, then install MTS on the second node without rebooting the first node, and so on. When all nodes have MTS installed, reboot all nodes.
Note MTS setup automatically upgrades MTS 1.1 on an MSCS cluster node. You must run MTS setup on each computer in the cluster. The MS DTC must be offline before running setup. You should remove any package resources because they are no longer needed.
