Installing Redgate software on 64-bit cluster

Hello!

We have just purchased SQL Backup Professional 5.0. I was reading installation instructions for cluster:

http://www.red-gate.com/supportcenter/C ... SQL_Backup\articles\clusters_manual_install.htm

It says:'To start the SQL Backup (server components) Setup Wizard, run SQBServerSetup.exe on the cluster node.'. We only got SQLToolbelt.exe from RedGate. I was wondering what should I do to proceed with cluster installation.
I was planning to run manual installation. Is this the recommended way of installing?
Will SQL Backup Professional work fine on 64-bit platform (Windows 2003 EE SP2)?

Thanks,
Igor

    Hi,

    SQL Backup Professional supports x64 bit platform.

    SQL Backup has client and then you need to install server components for your each of your SQL Server instance. SQLToolbelt.exe is the client installer whereas SQBServerSetup.exe is the server components installer.

    To start with ...first install the client on either cluster node using 'SQLToolbelt.exe'. Then in the client install directory you can find the 'SQBServerSetup.exe' which you can use to install server components on cluster nodes.

    'SQBServerSet.exe' i.e. server component installer is cluster aware. So we recommend you to use the installer directly to install the server components on all cluster nodes rather than installing it manually. You can get information regarding this in help file:

    Thanks,
