Clustering Help 1

[Dinkytoy]

Hi,

We're looking at setting up a cluster of 2 servers for the purposes of SQL. We'll be using Win 2k3 Ent x64 and a SAN solution.

What I can't seem to find anywhere is information on how to start clustering the Windows environments. I wonder if anyone has any links to white papers or guides on this subject, or any tips/pitfalls to avoid.

Any intel welcome .
