We have a Windows Server 2008 R2 Failover Cluster having two Nodes available to make a SQL Server 2008 R2 Cluster installation, configured for Node and Disk Majority using a Quorum Disk. There is no Application or Resource Group configured yet, and we have three shared disks available on the Failover Cluster to be used by DTC and other applications.

To configure MS DTC on Windows Server 2008 R2 Failover Cluster, you should use the Failover Cluster Manager administrative tool. Right click on Services and applications, and then click Configure a Service or Application.

On the Before You Begin page, click Next.

On the Select Service or Application page, select Distributed Transaction Coordinator (DTC) and then Click Next.

On the Client Access Point page, enter a Name and an IP address to be used by the DTC, and then click Next.

On the Select Storage page, select the disk you want to use for the MS DTC and then click Next.

On the Confirmation page, review all the information and then click Next.

Wait a few seconds for the progress bar, and then the Summary page will show us the DTC configuration finished successful.

That's all for today. I hope you enjoy the reading ! Cheers
