Hi all,

I have a windows 2003 cluster
with sql-server 2000 sp3
and a named instance.
I wanted to installation the hotfix ..859, but the installation failed
and I got the error:
"The logged on account does not have administrator privileges on all
possible owner nodes of the selected SQL Server configuration.
Please log on using an account that has administrator privileges on all
possible owner nodes and then run Hotfix Installer again."

I've checked different things.
My account has the correct rights, the RPC service is running, DNS
works fine ...
I have no idea what to do!

Can someone help??

Greetings

Susn

Are you running the hotfix from the controlling node? Also, you may have to
reboot each node, before the hotfix will install.

Cheers,

Hi Rod,

yes, the hotfix was running from the controlling node and both nodes
was rebooted.

Any other idea?

Greetings Susn

No, that about does it for me, sorry!

Hi Susn,

Just wondering if you were able to install the hotfix. I would recommend you to log into both the nodes of the cluster with the startup account of the clustered SQL Server service (this account is a doman account and
should have all the required rights). Then start the hotfix installation on the node where SQL Server instance is currently running.

Keep up updated. If it fails, then please post the log for the hotfix failure.
