Rebuild one node from SQL Cluster

hi guys,
I have SQL Cluster running on 2 servers running on Win2k3. The SQL Cluster
is on Active/Passive config. One of the node giving problem and i am planning
to rebuild it until this question strikes my mind. After rebuild, how do i
join back to existing SQL Cluster?
TIA
oh...it's k...i got it

"Adding or Removing a Cluster Node from the Virtual Server Definition
Another new feature of SQL Server 2000 failover clustering is the ability to
add or remove a cluster node from a SQL Server virtual server definition.
Adding nodes to the existing SQL Server virtual server definition performs
all the necessary operations on the new nodes (including installing binaries,
system components, and creating services) and performs the necessary
modifications to the cluster configuration. "

Which should help but some questions first.
What SP level is the OS and SQL currently at?
There are issues adding back failed nodes to SP4 level (I had them).
Also you must follow certain guidelines when evicting/adding nodes otherwise
you could render your cluster unusable.
Also have a backup plan in case this actually does happen. I restored the
critical databases to another cluster just prior to doing the actual work on
a live system just in case it all went wrong.
Also if you have access to a "virtual server system" Virtual Server 2005 or
VMWare create a system similar to you current one to try the process out.

Real quick Q on Select @@identity

Hi all. Just a quick question for you guys...I did a search on Select @.@.identity and I'm not sure I understand it. The program I'm migrating over (from sql server to oracle) has "Select @.@.identity" at the end of some insert statements. I'm just tryin to figure out what this does and what the Oracle equivlant would be? i have read posts(or in this case a blog) like this http://weblog.anthonyeden.com/archives/000054.html that states it gives you the value of the PK.

I've also read this http://www.kamath.com/tutorials/tut007_identity.asp stating select @.@.identity is handy to use as a "connection specific global variable." This all makes sense, however in the code I am examining select @.@.identity is not assigned to any variable. Basically, my question is if select @.@. identity is not assigned to a variable in your code, what use does putting it at the end of a select statement serve? thank youThe 'Select @.@.Identity' statement after Insert is simply to find out what the the last(max) identity number after the Insert. Identity in Oracle it's the Sequence number. It's the same thing as finding out the last sequence number that was inserted.|||You should probably be using SCOPE_IDENTITY() instead of @.@.IDENTITY. If your insert triggers inserts into other tables, @.@.IDENTITY will contain the ID for a table inserted into by the trigger, not the table you inserted into. SCOPE_IDENTITY() will be the ID of the row you inserted.
