Hi,
Background
Windows 2012 R2 and SQL 2012 SP2 2 nodes cluster with Quorum, MSDTC and multiple SQL instances
Node1 - 192.168.1.1 HeartBeat 10.0.0.1
Node2 - 192.168.1.2 HeartBeat 10.0.0.2
vClustername - 192.168.1.3
vSQLname1\Instance1 - 192.168.1.4
vSLQname2\Instance2 - 192.168.1.5
Ping all names included virtual names - no issue.
\\node1\c$, \\node1\d$, \\node1\e$ and etc - all no issue.
But \\vSQLname1\c$ \\\\vSQLname1\d$, \\vSQLname1\e$ and etc - all failed (understand that it is by design).
Question
1. Do I need to add MSDTC resources to vSQLinstance1 and vSQLinstance2?
2. How to configure application to communicate \\vSQLname\instance1? As it is unable to map \\vSQLname\e.
Please advice. Thanks.
