Introduction

When availability is a priority, the Compaq ProLiant Cluster for NetWare 4.2 provides robust

fault tolerance across applications, clients, and storage by using Novell High Availability Server

(NHAS) and the Compaq RAID Array 4000 Fibre Channel technology shared storage. The

Compaq ProLiant Cluster for NetWare 4.2 consists of the following components:

•Two certified Compaq ProLiant servers

•Compaq StorageWorks RAID Array 4000 (formerly the Fibre Channel Storage System)

•Industry-Standard Network Interconnects

•Novell High Availability Server software

•NetWare 4.2/4.11 Network Operating System

A cluster, unlike stand-by failover solutions, consists of two servers, each with its own rights,

permissions, clients, and volumes performing simultaneous, independent tasks. Should either of

the servers fail, the surviving server will inherit all responsibilities and permissions of the failed

server. Each server must be able access to the other’s storage in order to respond successfully to

requests that had been handled by the failed server. Currently, only the Compaq RAID Array

4000, formerly the Compaq Fibre Channel Storage System, allows for multi-server (multi-

initiator) control of external storage on ProLiant servers.

In order for the surviving server to mount the volumes of the failed server, it must first detect the

failure. On the ProLiant Cluster for NetWare 4.2, both nodes in the cluster monitor the other

through three different interconnections. The cluster interconnects for the ProLiant Cluster for

NetWare 4.2 are:

•The Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop and shared storage – the “Disk Link”.

•The servers’ public LAN connection – the “NetWare Link”.

•An optional dedicated connection between the two servers – the “Dedicated Link”.

For an even higher level of availability, each interconnect can be configured with a redundant

backup interconnect. The backup links consists of redundant Network Interface Cards (NICs)

and cables for the NetWare and Dedicated links, and redundant Fibre Channel Host Controllers,

storage hubs, Fibre Channel Array Controllers, and cables for the Disk link. If the primary

interconnect fails, communication continues over the backup.

The ProLiant Cluster for NetWare 4.2 consists of ProLiant Servers, the Compaq StorageWorks

RAID Array 4000 storage system, Novell High Availability Server, Novell NetWare 4.2, and at

least two network adapters. The optional dedicated link between the servers requires two

additional network adapters.

Ordering Process

1. Obtain the Novell High Availability Server software.

Contact your local Novell reseller for pricing and ordering information.

2. Order Compaq ProLiant servers.

The most basic blocks of your cluster, Compaq ProLiant servers, are tested

and certified for ProLiant Cluster for NetWare 4.2. When selecting the

ProLiant model for your network, keep in mind that each server in your

cluster should be able to deliver satisfactory performance when operating in

failover mode. Also, make sure that the ProLiant model that you select has

enough PCI/EISA slots to satisfy both current and future connections to the

LAN, storage, and other cluster nodes.

3. Make sure that you have at least one Ethernet adapter for each server

in the cluster.

As a minimum, each server in the cluster must contain one network adapter. If

only one NIC is present in each server, this connection will be used for both

LAN connections and NHAS monitoring. Order additional NICs for

redundant LAN connections or dedicated NHAS monitoring as needed.

4. Order Compaq Fibre Channel Host Controller(s).

Each server must have at least one Fibre Channel Host Controller to connect

to the RAID Array 4000 shared storage. If additional Fibre Channel loops of

shared storage are used, order additional host adapters accordingly.

Additional controllers will also be necessary to configure the RA4000 for No

Single Point of Failure.

5. Order Compaq Fibre Channel Storage Hub(s).

In order to share a RAID Array 4000, the servers must access the array

through a Fibre Channel Storage Hub. Order one hub for each Fibre Channel

loop in your cluster. Order an additional hub if you are configuring a

redundant Fibre Channel loop for No Single point of Failure storage

configuration.

6. If you order a Compaq Fibre Channel Storage Hub 7 and will be

mounting the unit in a rack, you will need a Fibre Channel Storage Hub 7

Rackmount Kit.

The Compaq Fibre Channel Storage Hub 7 cannot be mounted in a rack

system without the rackmount kit. Order a rackmount kit for each FC Storage

Hub 7 that will be rack-mounted. Compaq Fibre Channel Storage Hub 12 does

not require a rackmount kit.

7. Order Compaq Raid Array 4000 Storage System(s).

As the main component of the shared storage, at least one Compaq RA4000

storage system is required for each ProLiant Cluster. Additional RA4000

storage systems may be connected within the cluster as part of a single Fibre

Channel loop or added as a separate loop. In addition to the RA4000 storage

system(s), each loop will require its own hub and host adapters.

Order other server options as

needed

Order Compaq RAID Array 4000

storage options as needed

Order additional NICs for LAN

connections as necessary

Order Compaq RAID Array

4000 Storage System(s)

If you order a Fibre Channel

Storage Hub 7 and will be

mounting the unit in a rack, you

will need a Fibre Channel Storage

Hub Rackmount Kit

Order Fibre Channel Storage

Hub(s)

Order at least one Compaq Fibre

Channel Host Controller per

server. Order additional

controllers for No Single Point of

Failure

Make sure you have at least one

Ethernet adapter for each server

in the cluster. Order additional

NICs, for redundant or dedicated

connections, as needed.

Order Compaq ProLiant Servers

Order Novell Software

0095-0699-A

8. Order Compaq Fibre Channel Storage options as needed.

Order hard drives, cabling, and redundant power supplies as per your requirements. The RAID

Array 4000 Redundant Controller can also be ordered. This option enables you to configure a

dual redundant Fibre Channel loop, and includes an additional Fibre Channel Array Controller,

two GBIC-SW Connector Kits, and a Fibre Channel cable. Also, be sure you have the correct

drivers and firmware for the Redundant Controller option. The Redundant Controller option

requires Fibre Channel Array Controller firmware version 2.34 or higher on both controllers, and

NetWare drivers CPQFC.HAM version 2.00 and CPQFC.CDM version 1.30 (found on Smart

Start 4.30 and Novell Software Support Diskettes (NSSD) 5.10A)

9. Order additional NICs for LAN connections as necessary.

10. Order other server options as needed.
