I am a 2 node active/passive 2003 cluster. I have some maintenace where I need to shut down both of the servers at the same time.
Has anyone experience any issue in this approach?
I am planning to take the cluster offline and then shutdown the servers and bring it online after the reboot. I am also running SQL so any concerns or tips as what would be the best scenario.
Hoping to get some reply.
Thanks

But make sure you have complete backups for system and user databases to ensure to recover when something is wrong.
