Hey all,
I'm struggling with an odd problem on my new SQL cluster and wondered what I am missing. Briefly, I have deployed a 2 node cluster with two instances, one default and one named, on separate cluster network names.
I have servers SQL01 & SQL02
Virtual network names SQLCL01 & SQLCL02
SQLCL01 has a default instance on it
SQLCL02 has a named instance called Instance2
I can connect to the dafault instance all day long no problems, but the named instance is giving me some jip. From the SQL server connect dialog, I can browse and see the instance in the list. If I connect from our old SQL 2014 server (Management Studio 12), it connects immediately no problems whatsoever.
When I try to connect from a new server I have spun up (on the same subnet), or my desktop machine (different subnet) with the latest Management Studio (18 or 17) on it...

Can't connect to named instance on FCI without specifying port
