Installation of Multiple named instances in Cluster environment

Hi All..

We are planning to build a cluster environment on MS SQL 2005. We want to install multiple named instances in a single database server and use cluster for that database server.

Is this option possible ? Any relevant documentation would be helpful

Thanks in advance

Yes, you can install multiple instances of SQL Server into a cluster. All of the relevant information can be found in Books Online.|||

here is some supplemental information to Books Online that was recently published:
