Your windows help will tell you how to run msinfo32 and the parameters e.g.
"C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\MSInfo\msinfo32.exe"
/report C:\temp\report.txt /categories +systemsummary
It does seem to want to start outlook when I run it, so that could be a
problem. Once you have created the file you can then load it into a table.

MsDtsSrvr.ini.xml file configration
Hi All,
How to configure MsDtsSrvr.ini.xml file in a active\active cluster.

Add the named instances in, as per your previous post which I answered would make sense. Why, are you having a problem?Monday, February 20, 2012
MSDTC / W2K3 / SQL 2000 Clustering
I'm in the process of setting up my first W2K3 / SQL 2000 cluster and I have a few questions with regards to MSDTC.
Documentation I have says that MSDTC must be clustered in order for SQL clustering to work. It also says that you cannot use comclust.exe anymore and that MSDTC must be setup in its own group with the following ( VIP, Network Name, and dedicated shared di
sk). I currently have Windows and SQL 2000 clustering up and running without MSDTC clustered.
My questions are :
1) Do I need MSDTC at all? If so, why?
2) If I do need MSDTC clustered, can I use a disk that has other applications installed on it? (I only have two LUNS to work with on the SAN, my quorum device and a device I'm using for SQL data / logs)
I know that I haven't given a lot of background information, but I was hoping I could get a discussion started.
Thanks.

Yes. Setup will fail without MSDTC.

W2000 used the quorum device as the MSDTC physical disk by default. W2003
recommends using another disk, but in your case the qourum drive is probably
OK. I have a cluster upgraded from W2000 to W2003 with MSDTC on the quorum
device and it works just fine.

|||You do NOT need MSDTC clustered for installing SQL Server 2000 virtual instance on a Windows 2003 Microsoft Cluster Server. You need MSDTC only if you doing distributed transactions. you can cluster MSDTC
even after installing SQL Server 2000 virtual instance.
Refer the foll. KB for Win2K3

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=817064
It is recommended to use a seperate shared disk (500MB works) for MSDTC. In your case you just have the qourum disk and sql disk. I have seen many clusters that have MSDTC using the Quorum disk. Usually if
you are not doing a lot of distributed transactions then leave that way if everything is working fine. But if you are building your cluster and want to build as per best practices then the recommendation is to use a
seperate disk for MSDTC.

distributed transactions or even linked servers, you will be creating it just
like you create a disk resource. Make sure you have a disk, name and ip
resource created for MSDTC.
