Integration Services on a Multi-Instance SQL Server Cluster (Best Practice)

Hi
I have a 2-node active-passive SQL cluster (with SSIS manually
clustered in the SQL resource group). I want to convert to active-
active by installing a named instance on the second node. Am I correct
in saying that the new virtual server cannot have its own SSIS
instance but must instead utilise the SSIS instance (& the MSDB
database) of the first (original) virtual server (because there can
only be one instance of SSIS on a node) ?
Having said this, should I move the SSIS resources into (preferably) a
dedicated SSIS resource group or (alternatively) the cluster/quorum
group, moving the xml config file and the Packages folder to the
associated physical disk for that group ?

SSIS is typically set up as a local instance for each cluster node. Note
that each node must be installed independently. You can cluster the
resulting SSIS installations and refer to them a a cluster resource.
Here is Kirk's blog entry on how to do that:
