we run win2k3 enterprise for hosting fileshares for all our webfarms - each node has a fibre card in it accessing dedicated disks on a SAN. We have two disk resources, intranet and internet. Rather than having a redunant node in the cluster one node has the intranet resource disks attached to it whilst the other has the internet disks - should either node fail then the disk move over (it takes approximately 60 seconds to happen) to the other node but this way you don't have a box sitting there doing nothing..
Each node in the web farm win2k3 standard then runs cf enterprise (2 instances) with IIS mapped to the clustered fileshare - running in production for over 6 months no, zero downtime. jb On 10/24/05, Emmet McGovern <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Is anyone running W2003 Enterprise in cluster mode with their CFMX7?
