Renaming SQL Server cluster resource group

I was recently asked by a customer who just installed SQL Server 2005 with SP2 on 3 node failover cluster if he can rename SQL Server resource group after SQL Server is installed. The answer is Yes it is possible and does not affect functionality of SQL Server failover cluster. Though it is better to follow method described in this KB article method 3. Sometimes you may want to do this so that your cluster resource group name is meaningful eg reflects the name of the application which is hosted on SQL Server.

Hope this helps,
