New Instance on Existing Cluster

Greetings,
I've inherited a cluster configuration and I'm new to administration of
clusters.
2 node 64 bit SQL running on 64 bit Windows 2003 Enterprise Edition.
I'd like to install a new instance to the cluster but do not know the
method. My searches have turned up only installing from scratch with custom
Instance name.
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

You pretty much can find all the info you need in SQL Server 2005 Books
Online under
ms-help://MS.SQLCC.v9/MS.SQLSVR.v9.en/instsql9/html/d92134fe-8b36-496e-bc20-bda96973f3ac.htm
Basically, you just need to run SQL Server Setup after you have placed one
or more disk resources in a new resource group. But you do need to do some
preparation work with IP addresses, network names, AD group(s) and
privileges, etc.

New installation https issue

Hello,

I had some problems with an upgrade that added in RS to a default upgrade of sql2k to sql2k5. I then went into RS configuration and recreated everything. I am now able to get onto the site with no problems except when I have it checked to require ssl connections. I get the follow message when I have ssl checked using any of the three options "The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized." The certificate matches the url I am trying to goto: reports.domain.net. If in iis on the default website I force a redirect to https://reports.domain.net /reports it works fine, but it's not enforceing ssl if a user just types in the url http://reports.domain.net.reports. How can I get it to enforce ssl throughout via the RS configuration? Thanks.

John,

We are having the exact same issue. Did you ever resolve this?
