Hello,

on a sql 2000 cluster?

when i run the dtc tool, it gives me an error specified below. Any idea what
does this mean?

SQLSTATE=IM002,Native error=0,msg='[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data
source
name not found and no default driver specified'

thank you
Calvin

Not dumb. Does it start? Stay running? Did you follow 817064 & 301600? You
can also use the DTCTester

Another simple test would be to see if you start a distributed transaction.

In SQL Query Analyzer:
BEGIN DISTRIBUTED TRANSACTION
COMMIT

If it is not working then you will get
Server: Msg 8501, Level 16, State 3, Line 1
MSDTC on server yourServerName is unavailable.
