Cluster Planning
4-11
The sample midsize cluster configuration shown in Figure 4-3 contains these
hardware components:
Four ProLiant servers (cluster nodes)
One Fibre Host Adapter in each cluster node
One Storage Hub or FC-AL Switch installed between the Fibre Host
Adapters and the shared storage arrays
Three RA4000/RA4100 Arrays
One RA4000 Array Controller in each RA4000/RA4100 Array
Ethernet NIC adapters, cables, and Ethernet switches or hubs for the
Ethernet cluster interconnect (not shown)
Ethernet NIC adapters, switches or hubs, and cables for the client LAN
(not shown)
Sample Large Cluster with One Non-Redundant
FC-AL
Figure 4-4 shows an example of a larger PDC/O1000 cluster with one
non-redundant Fibre Channel Fabric that contains six cluster nodes and six
RA4000/RA4100 Arrays.
