Introduction
This document defines the supported HP NetServer LC 2000 configuration with HP Rack Storage/12FC
and Microsoft Cluster Server.
These configurations minimize single points of failure (SPOF), provide
maximum availability, and have been certified by Hewlett-Packard and Microsoft.
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.
