Modify Node List Warning

In the Cluster Management screen, use caution if you modify the node list of a Microsoft® SQL Server™ 2000 virtual server using the quorum resource. If such a node list is modified, the following warning appears when Next is clicked:

Modifying the node list of the quorum resource may prevent your cluster from failing over properly. Are you sure you want to do this?

The quorum resource itself is unable to fail over to any servers that you did not select as part of your virtual server definition. This may jeopardize the availability of your failover cluster. For more information, see the Microsoft Windows NT® documentation.

Note  This problem does not occur when you run SQL Server 2000 on Microsoft Windows® 2000.
