Introduction
This document defines the supported HP NetServer LH 4 configurations with HP Rack Storage/12s 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.
