How to recover from failover cluster failure in Scenario 2

In Scenario 2, failure is caused by Node 1 being down or offline but not irretrievably broken. This could be caused, for example, by an operating system failure.

1. After Node 1 fails, the Microsoft® SQL Server™ 2000 failover cluster fails over to Node 2.
   
   
2. Run SQL Server Setup and remove Node 1. For more information, see How to remove a failover clustered instance.
   
   
3. Resolve the problem with Node 1.
   
   
4. Ensure that the Microsoft Cluster Service (MSCS) cluster is working and all nodes are online.
   
   
5. Run the Setup program on Node 2 and add Node 1 back to the failover cluster. For more information, see How to add nodes to an existing virtual server (Setup).
