Supported Ethernet Interconnects for Compaq Parallel Database Clusters using Oracle Parallel Server 3 Introduction This Technical Guide is intended to be a supplement to the Order and Configuration Guides, Administrator Guides, and Certification Matrix for the Compaq Parallel Database Clusters for Oracle Parallel Server (OPS). This Guide reviews the supported Ethernet architectures for the client LAN and cluster interconnect (sometimes known as SAN) in an OPS environment. It does not provide detailed cluster network configuration information, nor does it address the ServerNet interconnect options available. Please refer to your Order and Configuration Guide and Administrator Guide for the configuration and implementation of these architectures. The client LAN and cluster interconnect used in a Compaq Parallel Database Cluster environment can be a combination of redundant or non-redundant architectures. This document begins with a brief discussion of the non-redundant architecture for both the client LAN and cluster interconnect. Limitations and requirements are outlined. Two options are detailed for implementation of fully redundant client LAN and cluster interconnect connections - NIC Fault Tolerant (NFT) and Adaptive Load Balancing (ALB). The ALB option is recommended for the best performance and availability of your cluster. Both configurations are fully tested and supported. These architectures will be defined for hardware, software and configuration requirements. These are the recommended configurations for the Compaq Parallel Database Clusters for OPS. ECG062/0299

Introduction
This Technical Guide is intended to be a supplement to the Order and Configuration Guides,
Administrator Guides, and Certification Matrix for the Compaq Parallel Database Clusters for
Oracle Parallel Server (OPS). This Guide reviews the supported Ethernet architectures for the
client LAN and cluster interconnect (sometimes known as SAN) in an OPS environment. It does
not provide detailed cluster network configuration information, nor does it address the ServerNet
interconnect options available.
Please refer to your Order and Configuration Guide and
Administrator Guide for the configuration and implementation of these architectures.
The client LAN and cluster interconnect used in a Compaq Parallel Database Cluster environment
can be a combination of redundant or non-redundant architectures. This document begins with a
brief discussion of the non-redundant architecture for both the client LAN and cluster
interconnect. Limitations and requirements are outlined.
Two options are detailed for implementation of fully redundant client LAN and cluster
interconnect connections - NIC Fault Tolerant (NFT) and Adaptive Load Balancing (ALB). The
ALB option is recommended for the best performance and availability of your cluster. Both
configurations are fully tested and supported. These architectures will be defined for hardware,
software and configuration requirements. These are the recommended configurations for the
