We have a 2 node win 2k3/sql server 2005 x64 multi instance (a.k.a active/active) cluster in the staging tier and will be "moving" the cluster to a production tier - that means all the IP addresses of the hosts/cluster will be changed. Can somebody point me in the right direction here and let me know what changes need to be implemented at the cluster level for this transition ? Regards.
DIfferent tier means to differnt IP?

Yes please - except the hostnames for the 2 nodes in the cluster everything else including domain, firewalls, IPs will have to be changed. I can't think of anything else that would affect the cluster.
