Cluster service error

I had a Windows Server 2003 (Enterprise ed) cluster with 2 nodes
running.
When I try to start the service through Cluster Administrator, which
is
installed on the local machine, I get "Error 1060: The specified
service does
not exist as an installed service"
The cluster service does not appear to be installed.but the same is
installed in other node .
Shouldn't this service be installed along with the OS and if so what
do you
suggest'
Any help on this would be appreciated as I cannot find any info on
this
problem anywhere......Hi,
I'm not quite sure which service you try to start, but the SQL server
services will not be runnning on the passive node of the cluster. when
you move your ressources to that node, the services will be started ( -
and will be stopped on the node that now is the passive ).
The cluster service will be running on both servers though.

Hi Steen
The cluster server is not starting on the node-1. when i try to start
the service it says cluster service does not exist as an installed
service. As I tried to start the service from C:\WINDOWS\Cluster still
it is not starting is there a way to install these service which i am
not able to see on NODE-1 but it is present on NODE-2 which is active
but all drives are offline expect.
1)cluster IP Address
2)Cluster name
3)Disk Q (Quram)
4)MSDDTC
I think if the service starts on NODE-1 the cluster will be up.
Thanks,

Are you sure NODE-1 is setup to be part of the SQL Cluster.
(keep in mind clustering SQL is two steps, creating nodes as a window
cluster and then defining/creating the SQL cluster.
For example, you could have 3 nodes in a windows cluster, A, B, C. A,B
could be setup as a SQL cluster and B,C as an exchange cluster.)
And all services should start on any valid cluster, there is no preferred
cluster.
