We are planning to upgrade Windows 2008 4 node cluster.
Envrironment: (This is QA)
Windows Server 2008 R2 4 node active active cluster
SQL Server 2008 R2.
We are planning to remove cluster and make 4 nodes as 4 standalone machines with windows Server 2012 R2 then install 2016 on 4 server.
Nore more Clustering and no more HA. Even we don't need any databaese.
Goal is conver existing cluster to 4 standalone machines With Windows Server 2012 and SQL Server 2016. It means just new server.
Please provide some idea that how to proceed?
