Hi,
I have windows 2003 x64 edition. It's a two node cluster(Active-Passive), The database engine has SQL 2008 SP1. Also there is another instance of SQL Reporting services(SQL 2008 R2 version) running on that cluster too.
So I just want to upgrade SQL 2008 SP1 to SQL 2008 SP3. The SQL Reporting Services 2008R2 should NOT be upgraded.
The following are the steps will be followed:
1. Stop the SQL Server service from the Active node which is Node1
2. Install the SQL 2008 SP3 exe
3. During installation I will just pick SQL 2008 engine to upgrade from SP1 to SP3 and Reporting services 2008R2 will NOT be
checked
4. Once the Service pack has been upgraded, I will reboot Node1
5. Then will bring SQL Server service online
The same above steps will be followed on Node2.
Please advise if I am missing anything here. Thanks.
