64 BW 3.1 on a 3 node cluster

[Former Member]

Hello,

We currently have a 2 node cluster for our BW/MSSQL server, we are planning to include a 3rd node thus making our BW system a 3 node cluster. We are using MSCS with MSSQL server. I am not sure if we can use the cluster wizard. If anyone has done this, could they share their experience?

Many Thanks in advance

Yup you can go ahead with 3rd node on MSCS but remember it will be your DI instance only. You can have only one CI on your MSCS.

Hello Arun,

Thanks for your quick response. Actually we are planning to include the CI on the 3rd node cluster. We are not planning to install another DI.

We currently have CI setup so it can failover to Node A or Node B, what we want to do is to be able to failover the CI on the 3rd node too Node C.

Has anyone successfuly done that on MSCS?

Regards,
