Installing a SQL Server Failover Clustered Instance (SQL Server 2022 Edition) - Part 1

This is an update to the SQL Server failover clustering installation. We will build a traditional 2-node SQL Server 2022 failover clustered instance on Windows Server 2022 - from start to finish.

Part 1 is all about installing, creating, and configuring the Windows Server 2022 failover cluster.

Thanks for taking the time to go through each step! Extremely helpful for me! I'm going through a two-node cluster setup.
