ODBC Error
installation fails. The sqlstp.log has the message
below. I have reinstalled MDAC and the error persists. Can someone tell me
what is wrong and how to fix
it?

Hi
What OS and Edition are you trying to install SQL Server on? Do you have
admin rights on the machine?

ODBC DSN on Cluster Server
Is MDAC cluster-aware?
I have an active/passive MS Cluster server.
ODBC DSN changes on the virtual cluster server are not propagated to the passive node.
How do I configure ODBC DSN such that they are propagated to both nodes in an active/passive cluster?
tia
Please note that MDAC is client driver while virtual cluster server is the server. Your ODBC DSN configuration is for the client, not for the server. The DSN will be used by the client to collect server information. So, what you need to do is to configure DSN in all client machines and the server name in the DSN shoule be the name of the SQL Server Virtual Server.
Or in short, MDAC itself is not cluster-aware.
|||For clarification,
these ODBC DSNs I am referring to, are created on the SQL Server machine. They are used for Linked Servers within SQL Server.
So, my question is, since ODBC DSNs cannot be specified as Cluster resources how do I ensure that all DSN changes are effected on both active/passive nodes in the cluster?
|||As I said, you have to create same DSNs on both active/passive nodes.sqlWednesday, March 28, 2012

Thanks for the reply. It wasn't a right issue since I was logged in as an
Admin. However your suggestion to reinstall MDAC fixed the problem I a
curious though, are you aware of what might have triggered the loss of
(only) the SQL Server ODBC facility?
Thanks,
Al
|||I can only guess
-Sql2000 has been updated to SP3a
(Perhaps the old driver was one for sql server 7)
-WindowsXP had a fair share of updates as well.
-Perhaps a anti-virusprogram was running during install of
mdac/updates
