Multi-node clusters A multi-node cluster using SAS provides an alternative to clustered Fibre Channel local loop topologies. This SAS architecture can give you high performance and high availability with no single point of failure. Figure 8 shows a multi-node cluster using a SAS RAID controller. Vendors can implement a SAS topology like this using an ASIC embedded on the motherboard. Figure 8. An example of a multi-node cluster application using a SAS RAID controller 12

Multi-node clusters
A multi-node cluster using SAS provides an alternative to clustered Fibre Channel local loop
topologies. This SAS architecture can give you high performance and high availability with no single
point of failure. Figure 8 shows a multi-node cluster using a SAS RAID controller. Vendors can
