2Dell PowerEdge Cluster SE100, SE200,and SL200 Platform Guide

PowerEdge Cluster SE100

The PowerEdge Cluster SE100 supports clustering with Windows NT Server 4.0,

Enterprise Edition or Windows 2000 Advanced Server. See the following sections for

information on supported configurations and service packs (SPs) for your Windows

operating system.

Windows 2000 Advanced Server

Installation instructions for hardware configurations using Windows 2000 Advanced

Server can be found in the Dell PowerEdge Cluster SE100, SE200, and SL200 Installa-

tion and Troubleshooting Guide.

Your PowerEdge Cluster SE100 system supports the following PowerEdge servers as

cluster nodes in homogeneous pairs (same server) with Windows 2000 Advanced

Server:

•PowerEdge 2300

•PowerEdge 4300

•PowerEdge 4350

•PowerEdge 6300

•PowerEdge 6350

NOTE: Heterogeneous server clusters (mixed server models) are not supported with

PowerEdge Cluster SE100 configurations running Windows 2000 Advanced Server.

Windows NT 4.0 Server,Enterprise Edition

You can find installation instructions for supported hardware configurations using

Windows NT Server 4.0,Enterprise Edition in the Dell PowerEdge Cluster SE100,

SE200, and SL200 Installation and Troubleshooting Guide.

Your PowerEdge Cluster SE100 supports the following PowerEdge servers as cluster

nodes in homogeneous pairs (same server) with Windows NT 4.0, Enterprise Edition:

•PowerEdge 2300

•PowerEdge 4300

•PowerEdge 4350

•PowerEdge 6300

•PowerEdge 6350

Your PowerEdge Cluster SE100 supports one combination of PowerEdge servers as

cluster nodes in heterogeneous pairs (mixed server models) with Windows NT 4.0,

Enterprise Edition: PowerEdge 2300 - 4300.

support.dell.com Dell PowerEdge Cluster SE100, SE200,and SL200 Platform Guide 3

Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack Support

Windows NT SP 6.0a or later is recommended for PowerEdge Cluster SE100

systems.

NOTE: Both nodes must be configured with similar drivers (network interface control-

lers [NIC], redundant array of independent disks [RAID] controller, and so on), utilities

(Dell OpenManage™ suite, PowerConsole, and so on), firmware (PowerEdge Expand-

able RAID Controller 2/SC [PERC 2/SC]), and the latest basic input/output system

[BIOS] for each system.

When planning for and testing your heterogeneous configurations, ensure that ade-

quate resources are available on the server node to run all of the application programs

on the cluster with fewer computing resources.

Adding Peripherals Required for PowerEdge 2300, 4300,

or 4350

WARNING: Hardware installation should be performed only by trained

service technicians. Before working inside the computer system, see the

safety instructions in your PowerEdge system documentation to avoid a

situation that could cause serious injury or death.

The following list provides Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) slot assignment

information for buses, RAID controllers, NICs, and the Dell OpenManage Remote

Assistant Card 2 (DRAC 2).

•PCI buses

—PCI bus 1: PCI slots 1 through 4 are in front of the PCI bridge

—PCI bus 2: PCI slots 5 and 6 are behind the PCI bridge

•RAID controllers

—RAID controllers can be installed in any available PCI slot

•NICs

—You can install NICs in any available PCI slot

•DRAC 2

—If you are currently using a DRAC 2 or plan to use one in the future, install it

in PCI slot 4

NOTE: To make sure that the small computer system interface (SCSI) or RAID control-

ler attached to the boot drives initializes first, you may have to change the scan order

of the PCI bus, if the BIOS supports this option, or change the order of the RAID con-

trollers, NIC(s), and DRAC 2. Performing these tasks ensures that Windows numbers

the boot drives in the proper sequence.

Adding Peripherals Required for PowerEdge 6300 or

6350

WARNING: Hardware installation should be performed only by trained

service technicians. Before working inside the computer system, see the

safety instructions in your PowerEdge system documentation to avoid a

situation that could cause serious injury or death.

The following list provides PCI slot assignment information for buses, RAID control-

lers, NICs, and a DRAC 2.

•PCI buses

—PCI bus 1: PCI slots 1 through 3 are 32-bit, 33-megahertz (MHz)

—PCI bus 2: PCI slots 4 through 7 are 64-bit, 33-MHz

•RAID controllers

—RAID controllers can be installed in any available PCI slot

—If you use multiple RAID controllers and there are slots available, Dell recom-

mends installing the RAID controllers on separate PCI buses to balance the

load on the system

•NICs

—You can install NICs in any available PCI slot

•DRAC 2

—If you are currently using a DRAC 2 or plan to use one in the future, install it

in PCI slot 3

NOTE: To make sure that the SCSI or RAID controller attached to the boot drives

initializes first, you may have to change the scan order of the PCI bus, if the BIOS sup-

ports this option, or change the order of the RAID controllers, NIC(s), and DRAC 2.

Performing these tasks ensures that Windows numbers the boot drives in the proper

sequence.

PowerEdge Cluster SE200 and SL200

PowerEdge ClustersSE200 and SL200 support clustering with Windows NT

Server 4.0, Enterprise Edition or Windows 2000 Advanced Server. See the following

sections for information on supported configurations and SPs for your Windows oper-

ating system.

Installation instructions for hardware configurations using Windows 2000 Advanced

Server can be found in the Dell PowerEdge Cluster SE100, SE200, and SL200 Installa-

tion and Troubleshooting Guide.

6Dell PowerEdge Cluster SE100, SE200,and SL200 Platform Guide

Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack Support

Windows NT SP 6.0a or later is recommended for PowerEdge Cluster SE200 and

SL200 systems.

NOTE: Both nodes must be configured with similar drivers (NIC, RAID controller, and

so on), utilities (Dell OpenManage suite, PowerConsole, and so on), firmware (PERC

2/DC), and the latest BIOS for each system.

When planning for and testing your heterogeneous configurations, ensure that ade-

quate resources are available on the server node to run all of the application programs

on the cluster with fewer computing resources.

PERC 2/DC Installation

You must install the PERC 2/DC in a 64-bit, 33-MHz or 32-bit, 33-MHz PCI slot. For

your specific server system, see the PCI slot assignments in the following

subsections.

Adding Peripherals Required for PowerEdge 2400 Cluster

Nodes

WARNING: Hardware installation should be performed only by trained

service technicians. Before working inside the computer system, see the

safety instructions in your PowerEdge system documentation to avoid a

situation that could cause serious injury or death.

The following list provides PCI slot assignment information for buses, RAID control-

lers, NICs,and a DRAC 2.

NOTE: The PERC 2/DC comes fitted with an ISAretainer (the extension bracket at the

edge of the PCI card) to allow it to fit into a full-length ISA expansion slot. You must

remove the ISA retainer to install the PERC 2/DC in PCI slots 1 or 2 of the PowerEdge

2400. To remove the ISA retainer, use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the two

screws that fasten the retainer to the PERC 2/DC.

•PCI buses

—PCI bus 1: PCI slots 1 through 5 are 64-bit, 33-MHz

—PCI bus 2: PCI slot 6 is 32-bit, 33-MHz

•RAID controllers

—RAID controllers can be installed in any available PCI slot.

—If you use multiple RAID controllers and there are slots available,Dell recom-

mends installing the RAID controllers on separate PCI buses to balance the

load on the system.

—If you are not currently using a DRAC 2 and do not plan to use one in the

future, Dell recommends that you install one RAID controller in the 32-bit

slot, even if it is a 64-bit RAID controller.
