Cluster Configuration Guide

29 January 2001

(see Versions at the end of this document)

Introduction

This document defines the supported HP NetServer LT 6000r configurations with HP Rack Storage/12FC

and Microsoft Cluster Server. These configurations minimize single points of failure (SPOF, SPOFless1)

and provide extended availability. The specific configuration certified and supported by both Hewlett-

Packard and Microsoft is defined, as are other guidelines to assist you in configuring your clustered

NetServers. 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.

What's Defined in Racked Cluster

Cluster

SPUs

Local and Shared Storage

Intra-cluster and Client LANs

Shared Storage Cabling

Cluster

Type of SPUs HP NetServer LT 6000r

Each node must be the same model SPU, but may have different sizes of

main memory and cache, and different CPU clock speeds.

Number of nodes 2

Shared Storage HP Rack Storage/12FC with 2 FCArray Cards, HP disks, and using an HP

D8602A or D8602B HBA in each server. See Shared Storage below.

LANs:

1For more information about configuring a SPOFless cluster, refer to the HP white paper, High Availability

MSCS Cluster Solutionon the HP NetServers, HA Planning website.

Client LAN Any NIC that is HP and Microsoft approved. See Client LAN below.

For a SPOFless cluster, two D5013B NICs configured with AFT is

recommended.

Intra-cluster

(Heartbeat) LAN Embedded NIC with crossover cable, or, configure as a VLAN through an

Ethernet switch. SeeIntra-cluster LAN below.

Power source Direct from power mains, power conditioner or uninterruptible power

supply (UPS) using any power conditioner or UPS. Redundant power

distribution units (PDU’s) are strongly recommended.

P4 – Local storage (NetRAID-1Si)

P6 - Shared Storage FC HBA

Booted from embedded DAC

Storage

Local

Controller May use embedded SCSI, embedded DAC, NetRAID-3Si or NetRAID-1Si.

For SPOFless, recommend embedded DAC with drives in RAID-1 mirror,

or another fault tolerant RAID level.

Driver For embedded SCSI, use sym_hi.sys from Windows 2000 Adv. Server CD

or later.

For embedded DAC or NetRAID-xSi, use mraid35x.sys version 2.62

(Navigator L.18.04.5 or later)

Cabinets (Physical drive

location) SPU internal drive bays or HP external drive cabinet (e.g., HP Rack

Storage/12), any number.

D8602B - Afcw2k.sys 3.0.3245.1

RAID level 0,1, 3, 5, 10

For SPOFless configurations a fault tolerant RAID type, e.g. RAID 5, is

recommended for all shared storage.

NOTEIf the NIC used is the

same type as the embedded NIC

(D5013A/B), then the Client

LAN NIC must use the same

driver as the Intra-cluster NIC.

No. of NICs 11 minimum

For SPOFless, 2 NICs

configured as a fault-tolerant

team are recommended.
