SQL 2005 Cluster install reboot issue
Hi, I am currently tasked with restoring a node to our 3 node DR cluster as it failed a while back. The box was either fixed or replaced, however, last week I receivedthe following error when I ran SCC. \- NAME01 - Pending Reboot Requirement (Error) Messages * Pending Reboot Requirement * A previous installation required a reboot of the machine for changes to take effect. To proceed, restart your computer and then run SQLServer Setup again. As the boxes were to undergo patching and a rebootthe followingdayI re-booked the install for today. However, now both of the remaining boxesinthe clusterseemtorequire a reboot. We have not touched them since the patching! The option is tobooka rebootforallmachines onthe dayofthe installbutI am not confident this is the problem. Has anyone else had something similar happen? Thanks in advance, Phil
Hi, To clarify further: The option is to book a reboot for all machines on the day of the install but I am not confident this is the problem as we are checking the reboot status of these machines (using Powershell & the registry) and they appear not to require one. As these are PROD machines I cant really started rebooting them willy nilly Phil
Hi, No, Windows Update is not set to install updates automatically. Cheers, Phil
