Hi RiteshShah,<br />
<br />
Thanks for your quick response. &nbsp;When I install SP3 on the other nodes, it just highlight reporting service for me to update, the rest of component (like database, native client, xml, etc...) were not selected. &nbsp;Do I still go ahead for the installation or simply select all then start the installation?<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />

Hi RiteshShah,

Thanks for your quick response.  When I install SP3 on the other nodes, it just highlight reporting service for me to update, the rest of component (like database, native client, xml, etc...) were not selected.  Do I still go ahead for the installation or simply select all then start the installation?

Thanks,

Dear all experts,<br />
<br />
I just install SQL Server 2005 cluster (Active /Passive) in my environment. &nbsp;Just wonder do I need to install SP3 on both nodes or it will help me to apply SP3 on both nodes automatically? &nbsp;As I remember that in earlier version of SQL Server, I've to install service pack on both nodes. &nbsp;But now when I type select @@version on both nodes, it both returns 9.00.4035.00 (X64).<br />
<br />
Please kindly advise

Do I need to install SQL Server 2005 SP3 on both cluster nodes

Microsoft SQL Server 2005 is a suite of relational database management system (RDBMS) products providing multi-user database access functionality.Component services include integration (SSIS), reporting (SSRS), analysis (SSAS), data quality, master data, T-SQL and performance tuning. It includes support for managing XML data and allows a database server to be exposed over web services using Tabular Data Stream (TDS) packets encapsulated within SOAP (protocol) requests.
