Hi
I am trying to create a 2 Node cluster on a Windows 2012 with SQL Server 2012 Standard edition. I created the SQL Server ( Database Engine ) Failover instance on the 2 Node Cluster successfully. However I am unable to Create a DTC Service that will fail over with the Cluster Instance.
I have done the following steps :
1. Create a Failover Cluster Service ( SQL Server (PRD1 ) )
2. On the Failover Cluster Manager I added a Role ( Distributed Transaction Service ) (DTC1)
3. Created the Dependencies for the Failover.
When I try to move the PRD1 service to the second node the Service Fails as the DTC1 role does not move to the Second Node and the DTC resource fails to come up on the second node.
What am I doing wrong am I missing any steps. Please if you can provide me with the step by step instruction it would be helpful as I need to set it up asasp.
Thanks & Regards
