I tried adding a second SQL Server machine and an error message came up stating that I already have one and cannot create a second one.

Thanks, 

Steve

  Hello Steven,

  Some SQL Server and SharePoint templates are actually marked as a singletons so that only one of these templates can exist in an environment at a time. Due to licensing and the way that SQL uses IPs we limit the number of SQL servers to one per environment.

  To get around this, if you require a second SQL Server you can use a base Windows Server 2008 template, upload and install your own installer for SQL and activate it if you have an available MSDN license.
