I've successfully set up a failover cluster SQL Server with 2 nodes (sqlserver1 and sqlserver2. However I can only connect from the node where SQL Server is running. I cannot even connect from the second node, except when I move the role to it. I cannot connect from any client machine.
Searching for solution on the web, I learnt that is a known issue with Microsoft SQL SERVER 2012 R2
The SQL cluster does not resolve to the virtual network IP. Instead it resolves to the IP address of the node where SQL Server is running IP
I have installed SQL Server Service pack 2 on both nodes hoping this will solve the problem but still nothing change.I opened all related ports 1433 and 1434 enabled remote connections, tried all possible solution in vain.
Is there any one who found solution for this issue and can share it with me?
