Guest Aleks Kleyn Posted May 30, 2008 Posted May 30, 2008 Windows cluster is good idea to make sure smooth performance of server functionality. Assume I have few servers. What I need to change in their settings to join them in cluster. Can I put in one cluster 32 and 64 bit OS? Is it possible to put into cluster win 2008 and windows Vista? -- Aleks Kleyn http://www.geocities.com/aleks_kleyn

Either Server Clustering, or NLB (Network Load Balancing). NLB works on all editions of Server including Web Edition. Server Clustering works on server versions OTHER than Web Edition. > Can I put in one cluster 32 and 64 bit OS? I don't know but it probably works, at least in some cases, but it will make no sense unless they run the same apps. > Is it possible to put into cluster win 2008 and windows Vista? Vista doesn't support Microsoft clustering. Google: site:microsoft.com "server clusters | clustering" | NLB | "network load balancing" You can leave out either of the clustering types if you aren't interested in those. Add additional keywords or phrases to isolate your most important interests.

They can be a bit tedious because they are literally STEP BY STEP (some run to over 100 pages) but they are good when you need to figure out the hard parts. > Best regards > > Meinolf Weber > Disclaimer: This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and > confers no rights. > ** Please do NOT email, only reply to Newsgroups > ** HELP us help YOU!!! http://www.blakjak.demon.co.uk/mul_crss.htm > >> Windows cluster is good idea to make sure smooth performance of server >> functionality.

Guest John John (MVP) Posted May 30, 2008 Posted May 30, 2008 Re: how to create cluster In addition to the other replies, you cannot mix 32-bit & 64-bit nodes. The addition of a 64-bit node to a 32-bit cluster is not supported http://support.microsoft.com/kb/312387 John Aleks Kleyn wrote: > Windows cluster is good idea to make sure smooth performance of server > functionality.
