Windows 2008 R2 failover cluster with SQL as a resource. All the cluster
disks are "owned" by the SQL resource. I need to install a client scheduler
for the cluster backups. The documentation for doing that is assuming you
will just be doing backups of the cluster drives and adding the generic
resource you add the cluster drives so it all fails over together.



I need to make it so that the generic service is part of the SQL resource
and gets failed over with that. Anyone out there done this type of
configuration? I have the generic service installed and the TDP SQL backups
run fine, but last night the SQL resource failed over and my service didn't.
Have failed SQL backups this morning.



If I try to add a generic service to the SQL resource, it doesn't appear to
give me the option to replicate registry keys.



Any help would be appreciated.
