The cluster software comes with widows advanced server. I mean we have to buy seprate licenses for cluster scenarios?

For clustering, usually Processor License Option being
used. Plus you need the Enterprise edition for clustering.
You might want to contact someone who does clustering job.
No used to mention the price, it's pricey.

Jay,
There are no extra costs for Clustering that are based on uniprocessor or
multiprocessor, just the standard Windows licensing costs.
