Its a pretty vague question with a lot of decisions to be made. You need at
least two servers with the same hardware. Each server should have at least 2
nic cards. You need to decide what type of shared storage you want. It can
range from a scsi drive array to a fiber channel SAN.
The database needs to reside on the shared storage. If you have only one
database you will be using and active/passive clustering model.
You can Google or search MS for SQL and clustering and come up with a slew
of reading. Check with your hardware vendor to work out the hardware details
and come up with something you want and can afford. We'll be here to help
along the way.
