Installing Cluster Administrator for Windows Clusters on a Remote Console

You cannot install the Windows 2000 or Windows Server 2003 Administration Tools package on clients running any version of Windows NT® 4.0. However, a Windows 2000 Advanced Server or Windows Server 2003, Enterprise Edition cluster can be remotely administered using the Cluster Administrator included with Windows NT 4.0 operating systems with limited support.

See your Windows NT 4.0 operating system documentation for more information about the installation of Cluster Administrator on a remote client.

Cluster Administration and Monitoring

When using Cluster Administrator provided with Windows NT 4.0 operating systems on a system running Windows NT 4.0, Cluster Administrator may generate error messages if the software detects Windows 2000 or Windows Server 2003 cluster resources. Dell strongly recommends using client systems running Windows 2000 or Windows Server 2003 with the appropriate Administrator Pack for cluster administration and monitoring.
