For Windows Server 2008 Failover Clusters, you can also use the
Cluster Validation Wizard.
12 Configure highly-available applications and services on your failover
cluster. Depending on your configuration, this may also require providing
additional LUNs to the cluster or creating new cluster resource groups.
Test the failover capabilities of the new resources.

services that are hosted on your failover cluster.
Installation Overview
Each node in your Dell Windows Server failover cluster must have the same
release, edition, service pack, and processor architecture of the Windows
Server operating system installed. For example, all nodes in your cluster may
be configured with Windows Server 2003 R2, Enterprise x64 Edition. If the
operating system varies among nodes, it is not possible to configure a failover
cluster successfully. It is recommended to establish server roles prior to
configuring a failover cluster, depending on the operating system configured
on your cluster.
