Title: Windows 2003 Enterprise Server with Cluster
Post by: danny2001s on May 23, 2007, 01:11:58 AM

Hello,

Is the Server Edition compatible with Microsoft Cluster Server under Microsoft Windows 2003 Server Enterprise?

Can I install the aVast Server Edition in a Clustered environment server?

Do I need to reboot the server after install of Server Edition?

Also, how is the license scheme for Active/Passive clustering? Do I need to buy one license per server in cluster or one license per Active server in cluster?

Thanks a lot for a quick response

Daniel  :D

Unfortunately, yes.

As avast Server edition is priced per-machine, I'm afraid you'd have to buy a license for each cluster node. :-\
