Misleading Error in adding node to the SQL Server Failover Cluster.


Ran into an issue ,while adding a node to existing SQL Server Cluster . 

Got the following error during install .

The current SKU is invalid.

After few google searches , found the workaround. 

The workaround is simple.  Clear the entry for PID in ....\x64\Defaultsetup.ini ( make sure that you copy this file to different directory)  and manually type in the product key during setup.  By following this workaround , the setup finished sucessfully. 

You can see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/957459 for additional information . Per MS , this is fixed in the cumulative update.
