MSDTC/ Client component issue after SP2 installation SQL2005

Error Displayed in Summary.txt after installation:
MSP Error: 29549 Failed to install and configure assemblies D:\MSSQL_Tools (x86)\90\NotificationServices\9.0.242\Bin\microsoft.sqlserver.notificationservices.dll

MSDTC Event ID: 4384

Checked cluster admin, and sure enough it is not there. You need to register MSDTC as a cluster resource, and then restart setup.

This is known issue, where client tool upgrades will not work unless the Distributed Transaction Coordinator is registered in the MSCS cluster (even if the SQL Engine is not installed)
