History...
2 Node mixed SQL Cluster.
SQL 2008R2 + SQL 2012
Host OS, Server 2012.
I need/want to upgrade the HOST OS to 2012 R2. NO CHANGES TO SQL. I want to avoid creating a new cluster.
options...
1. in place upgrade. Is it supported? IE: pause node. upgrade OS.
2. evict node. Upgrade OS, then rejoin to cluster.
What are my options. it's really frustrating trying to find good documentation because the products have the same "2012" in the name.
please help. Thanks
