| Hi everyone -We would like to place SSL on our clustered SQL server.I have tried to install the .crt fileas outlined in this articlehttp://support.microsoft.com/kb/276553on both nodes of the cluster, the sql server fails to starta couple of articles states that the certificate must be a fully qualified domain name....The certificate must be a server certificate that was issued to the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the server. You cannot use the IP address for the certificate name. A client computer must request the connection to the server by the FQDN or NetBIOS name of the server. You cannot connect to the server by using the IP address of the computer that is running SQL Server.That being said.... the certificate we have only states...xxx.com as the certificate name...do i need to use the cluster name as well??tiatony |

| NopeI have tried several different types of SSL certs, from local inhouse creation to purchasing a wildcard SSL cert for the domain.each one has failed to allow SQL to start.One time it really got locked up and i had to remove the entire SQL instance from the cluster.This is not going too well in implementation, so a call to MS might be in order.thanks and good luck!take caretony |
