Hello eliassal,

My suggestion is to insert the CD and upgrade to Enterprise for the cluster
environment.

Setup the Enterprise Cluster and then transfer the data is another option.

Hi, do you mean that I can not use what is suggested by Tom if I have already
setupthe cluster in the standard version?

Hello,

Per my research, you could not use the command line to upgrade the cluster
instance.
