I'm trying to build a new cluster with SQL Server 2K Enterprise on
Windows 2003 server. When I run the install, I tell it to put the
program files on the D: (local) drive and the data/log files on shared
drives. However, after the installation is complete, almost all the
files go in the C: drive in \program files\Microsoft SQL Server, rather
than the D: drive (it does create a few files on D:). We've experienced
this on more than one server build.
Anyone know any way around this?
Post answers publicly, please, or email to
steven.wechsler (at)mtvstaff.co m (the posting email address is hosed).
Thanks,
Steve

I don't know much about clustering myself, however this KB article
notes that in SQL 2000, only databases are failed over, not binaries,
so in order for setup to install the binaries, "you must ensure that
each node has a local drive letter in common with all the other nodes
in the cluster". Is it possible that only some nodes have a D: drive? http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;243218
In any case, it would probably be worth giving Microsoft a call - I
guess that if you have the requirement and the resources to implement
clustering, then the cost of a support call is negligible (if you don't
already have a general support agreement). And if the issue is caused
by a bug in the product, then it's free anyway.

When trying to use the function CreateDirectory on my local machine
everything works fine but when I upload the page to my webhost I get an issue
that it can't find path on D:\, though D:\ is what my website is found on.
This is an H-SPHERE web cluster host.
From my research I found that this issue is due to ASPNET account not having

My question is what is the correct approach to solve this...

Hi All,
I'm hoping someone will have some words of wisdom for me regarding MS
Clustering on Windows 2003.
I have a service that runs on a cluster. During invocation it's
supposed to determine from the cluster which node is active (this is a
active/standby configuration) and either proceed or sleep depending on
the status. The interface to the cluster is that advertised by the
standard interop layer built by Visual Studio for the...

I've got an access97 reporting mdb that pulls data (77,000 rows) from a
sql server table into a local table to run reports
if the local table is part of the reporting MDB, the insert statement
(16 fields) takes less than 30secs, but because of db-bloat, I moved
the local table to a 2nd MDB
and per postings, this 2nd MDB is copied into a folder and linked as a
'temp' MDB every time I run my reporting mdb

Ok, this is the second install I haev tried of 2005 to get this right, and something is not working correctly. The server is in a cluster, and it has 4 drives available in the cluster... the N Drive is supposed to be the Data drive, and during install, I specify it as such, but when I get it installed, the L drive shows up as the data drive.
Now, I figured that wasn't a huge problem, so I clicked on the DB and hit properties and went to...

When I ckeck the install details it tells me that

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
