SQL Server guest cluster
The management infrastructure components require SQL Server databases. These databases are partitioned into two instances of SQL
Serv

<Prex>
SQL01 and <
<Prex>
>SQL02 VMs).
The guest cluster name is
<Prex>
SQLCL.
The following table shows the instance of SQL Server names, and the databases on each instance.
