Dear all,

My client would like to set up a SQL Server with Active/Active Clustering
with SAN. Is it possible to do a loadbalancing of the database in SQL Cluster
environment? Such as, can I using same/difference instance to mount the same
database resources in the SAN disk?

In short, No.

SQL Server clustering is a failover technology, not a scale-out technology.
If you want more database processing power, purchase a larger server.

I'm plan migrate a instance of SQL Server in 1server with 4 processors
to Cluster with 2 node and 2 processor for node.
There is any solution for load balancing in this case.

Assume that these are the same class of processors and your app absolutely
needs the processing power of the 4 processors, then you either (1) should
not migrate the app to the 2-proc per node cluster, or (2) add two more
processors to each node.
