| The cluster will not handle this. But are you sure you need to install it on the nodes? Usually these get installed on the client machines or application servers. What exactly is going to use the ODBC data sources?Tara KizerMicrosoft MVP for Windows Server System - SQL Serverhttp://weblogs.sqlteam.com/tarad/ |

| That doesn't answer the question as to what is going to be using the data source. You've only told us what the ODBC driver is, but not what is calling it.Tara KizerMicrosoft MVP for Windows Server System - SQL Serverhttp://weblogs.sqlteam.com/tarad/ |

| Tara is right. Tell us/her what is going to be using the ODBC connection. Most likely it doesn't need to be installed on the SQL Server. If an app is using the ODBC connection, then the ODBC driver(s) need to be on the web server or client machines since they use the ODBC driver to connect to the database from the app. The app itself should not reside on the SQL Server correct? So tell us what is using the ODBC connection and where it's calling the ODBC connection from. |
