Cluster Configuration Guide

(see Versions at the end of this document)

Introduction

This document defines the supported HP NetServer LC 2000 configuration with HP Rack Storage/12FC

and Microsoft Cluster Server. These configurations minimize single points of failure (SPOF), provide

maximum availability, and have been certified by Hewlett-Packard and Microsoft. This guide is

prescriptive; it describes the configurations supported by HP. Any deviance to these configurations can

result in an inoperative cluster or an operating cluster with degraded performance, hidden SPOFs, etc., and

therefore will not be supported by HP.
