BUG#: 354353 (SHILOH_BUGS)
SYMPTOMS
If you start SQL Server-related services with a Non-Administrator account on a cluster, Service Pack 1 (SP1) Setup for a SQL Server instance (default or named) is not successful and you receive the following error message:
Setup
The Cluster Resource Failed to come online. If extended information was reported by the clustering service it can be obtained from the event log.
In addition to the error message, the following errors are recorded:
Sqlclstr.log
~~~ ClusterResourceStart... tick=0, state=129
~~~ ClusterResourceStart... tick=1, state=2
ClusterGroupEnum(4): enter

The Sqlclstr.log and Sqlsp.log are located in the Windows folders.
After such a failure, you may not be able to successfully start SQL Server services or Cluster Resources.
CAUSE
Setup cannot complete successfully because the Access Control Lists (ACLs) on the SQL Server-related registry key are reset. Because of this, Setup does not preserve the previous registry key settings and it removes the necessary access permissions from the registry keys for non-Administrator accounts.
RESOLUTIONTo resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Microsoft SQL Server 2000. For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the

WORKAROUND
To work around this behavior, start SQL Server-related services with an account that has administrative privileges on all nodes of the cluster. You can give an account administrator-level privileges by making it part of the local Administrators group on the nodes of the cluster either directly or through group membership.
After a failed Setup attempt, you might not be able to bring the SQL Server resources online. If this is the case, set the SQL Server-related services to start by using a Domain account.
STATUSMicrosoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Microsoft SQL Server 2000 SP1.
This problem was first corrected in Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Service Pack 2.
