How does one create two clustered Windows servers using the Management Portal?  (I don't see such an option under "+ New" in the Portal, portal.azure.com.).

TIA,

Hi,

Cluster being a group of independent servers (usually in close proximity to one another) interconnected through a dedicated network to work as one centralized data processing resource.

Cluster server option is not available in Management portal as there is a process of creating one.

You might have to select "+New" in the portal ( Management portal ) -> compute -> Virtual Machine -> From Gallery -> Choose an option windows server for windows server and select the corresponding image.

See details here for " Deploy Cluster Node VMs on Windows Azure "

Shirisha,

I just started reviewing the URL. Looks like a lot of work! Too bad the Azure Management portal doesn't include templates for a simple test cluster setup.
