Cluster Configuration Guide

Introduction

This document defines the server cluster configurations supported by Hewlett-Packard for interconnection of

two HP tc4100 servers and one or two HP VA 7100 or 7400 disk drive enclosure(s), with MicrosoftâCluster

Server software. These configurations provide high server cluster availability and minimize single points of

failure (SPOFs). Hewlett-Packard will support any cluster configuration that conforms to the guidelines of

this document. Deviations from the supported configurations can result in an inoperative cluster, an

operating cluster with degraded performance, or hidden SPOFs. Therefore, deviations are not supported. For

revision/update information on this document, refer to Versions on page 10.

Cluster Configuration Elements

This section identifies the hardware components, system software, network interfaces, and power distribution

arrangement required to build an operational server cluster supported by Hewlett-Packard. The various

server cluster elements are listed below, and their associated configuration data is detailed in separate tables

and illustrations that follow.

· Server configuration

· Shared storage configuration

· Intra-cluster (heartbeat) LAN configuration

· Client LAN configuration

· FC cabling configuration

· Supported Fibre Channel topologies

· Power distribution configuration

Performance note:

For best performance, If Server 1 and Server 2 are configured in an active/active cluster

configuration, where each is running a critical application software, each application should

use LUNs owned by a different VA controller, and the primary path of the server running the

application should be to the VA controller owning that application’s LUNs.
