HP Netserver LP2000r with NetRAID-4M (HP Rack Storage/12) Windows® 2000 Advanced Server Cluster Configuration Guide 2 May 2001 (see Versions at the end of this document) Introduction This document defines the configurations that Hewlett-Packard supports for the HP NetServer LP2000r, HP Rack Storage/12 and Microsoft® Cluster Server. These configurations minimize single points of failure (SPOF) 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.
