windows application and windows service and windows process failover...   

Hello there,

Can anybody please give some suggestions on how to attack this
problem?

Our solution here compromises of the following components:

Thick client windows applications,
.net windows services,
.net windows process,
Reporting services,
IIS,
Sql server 2005

We would like to implement a clustering solution for theses
components.

Our key goal is to be able to handle a failure situation.

I am not sure what changes I would have to do in my already developed
windows applications, .net windows services, .net windows process to
support it in a failover situation so that the user data is
transferred from one server to another in a fail over situation.

Also should I be using a combination of Load-Balanced Cluster [windows
applications, .net windows services, .net windows process, Reporting
services, IIS] and Failover Cluster [ SQL Server] for this scenario?

All help and guidance is sincerely appreciate

Thanks,
--Sri
