SSO and SQL Cluster

$

Can someone please confirm if SSO DB can be installed on a SQL cluster and is this supported? I have read many conflicting deatils on that.

 

My understanding is that vCenter can be installed on a SQL cluster and is supported (http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1024051). Which brings me to the question that if SSO DB is not supported in a SQL cluster, then doesnt that mean one needs to have to instances for vCenter (clustered) and a non clustered instance for SSO. I know vCenter can be installed using a non-clustered  SQL as well, but why not benefit from the reseliency for MSCS?

 

Finally, if SSO goes down... with it goes down the ability to use the web-client and log into the vCenter. Doesnt that mean one would want the SSO to be in a highly available env? I know we can install SSO in a clustered mode but even that points to a single DB. And if this DB can't live on a clustered SQL setup, how can we make SSO truely highly available. The DB can become a single point of failure from a mangment prespective and such. How is everyone addressing this if SSO can't be installed using a SQL cluster. If it can be done without breaking support, please enlighten me. I have been looking for those words myself for a few days.
