Using Altiris in a SQL Server High Availability Mode?

Hey Everyone,

Is anyone running Altiris in an environment with SQL Server configured in a High Availability mode with Failover Clustering?  Does Altiris recognize the ADO shared name when trying to build the databases?  Does it failover successfully?  Our goal is to build our new Helpdesk servers so that if one goes down, the databases failover automatically and keep going without any downtime.  I think we can write a script that will restart the services if necessary, but the key are the databases.  Thanks all!

Currently version 6 and 7

do not support clustering. This has been on the roadmap for awhile, but I haven't seen or heard any update.
