Possible to install clustered SAP solution on server with existing system?

[Former Member]

Hello all,

I would like to know whether it is possible to install a clustered SAP

system (Windows2003/SQLServer2005 using MSCS) where the main MSCS node of the cluster already has a pre-existing Central SAP system (not clustered).

I believe that this would mean having to create /usr/sap (sapmnt)

twice, because there is already a sapmnt existing on a local drive for

the system that is already installed. For the cluster install, a new

sapmnt would be required on one of the shared storage disks so that it

could failover if the server crashed.

Is this scenario possible, and if so how do you get around having

multiple sapmnts? Do you have to move the sapmnt from system to system depending on which one you are working with (eg. when starting up)?

Does anyone have such a scenario?

Thanks in advance for any assistance......
