Did inplace upgrade to upgrade sql server 2000 cluster to sql server 2005 cluster.
when running the Install it looked like it upgraded node2 also,
while applying sp2 to Node1 , I got Failure status for Database Services Component, rest all components ended successfully,
when I googled for this I found out that it's a bug in SP2.

BUG: The Installation Progress dialog box displays a status of Failure for the
Database Services component when you install SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 1 or
SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 2 on an instance of SQL Server 2005

Did anybody faced same problem.How did you resolve this?

Right now application is running fine on one Node.

when I verified all installed programs on both Nodes, I noticed that only sp2 is missing in Node2, so I have to just install sp2 on Node2.I am thinking to just apply sp2 to Node2 and I guess it should be fine. Can any one please advise do I need to failover to Node2 inorder to apply sp2 to Node2 or it is not required at all.


Thanks in advance
