No, absolutely not.
Itanium and x64 are differenct processor architectures. Software that uses low level services has to be written for one or the other and cannot operate on both.
Granted, there is some software that may easily execute on both -but SQL Server is NOT able to execute on both.
|||Just to be clear I was asking if an x64 and an Itanium could participate in a cluster together.. not if the software would run of the respective machines?|||There would be no point in clusting an x64 and Itanium machine together as the needed software wouldn't be able to run on both nodes.
Because the installers would be different you woulnd't be able to install SQL on the cluster.
Machines which are in a cluster should be of the same hardware architechurer.
