Hewlett-Packard NetRAID-4M Controller Installation Guide Note: Whenever you remove and reinstall the MSCS software, you must also remove and reinstall the HP NetRAID-4M Cluster software. Because the custom DLLs provided by the HP NetRAID-4M Cluster software are not part of the standard MSCS software, these components must be registered each time the MSCS software is reinstalled. The general procedure for installing Microsoft Cluster Service (MSCS) and the HP NetRAID-4M Cluster software is as follows: s Install MSCS on one node, using the -localquorum option to establish a temporary local quorum, if necessary. This node will form the cluster with the name you specify. Note: The temporary local quorum is required on the first node only. s Install the HP NetRAID-4M Cluster software on the first node. s Repeat the previous steps on each remaining node, except: - Perform a normal installation of MSCS, without the localquorum option. - Indicate that subsequent nodes are to join the newly-formed cluster, specifying the name of the cluster when prompted. s After the MSCS and HP NetRAID-4M Cluster software is installed on all nodes, move the temporary quorum to a shared device. s If the cluster nodes are running Windows NT, reinstall the Service Pack on each node (version 6A is recommended). Installing MSCS and the HP NetRAID-4M Cluster Software Before installing the MSCS or HP NetRAID-4M Cluster software, start Windows and log on with administrative privileges. On the first cluster node, perform these steps: 7-4

Hewlett-Packard NetRAID-4M Controller Installation Guide
Note:
Whenever you remove and reinstall the MSCS
software, you must also remove and reinstall the
HP NetRAID-4M Cluster software. Because the custom
DLLs provided by the HP NetRAID-4M Cluster software
are not part of the standard MSCS software, these
components must be registered each time the MSCS
software is reinstalled.
The general procedure for installing Microsoft Cluster Service
(MSCS) and the HP NetRAID-4M Cluster software is as follows:
■
Install MSCS on one node, using the
-localquorum
option to
establish a temporary local quorum, if necessary. This node
will
form
the cluster with the name you specify.
Note:
The temporary local quorum is required on the
first node only.
■
Install the HP NetRAID-4M Cluster software on the first node.
■
Repeat the previous steps on each remaining node,
except
:
–
Perform a normal installation of MSCS, without the -
localquorum
option.
–
Indicate that subsequent nodes are to
join
the newly-formed
cluster, specifying the name of the cluster when prompted.
■
After the MSCS and HP NetRAID-4M Cluster software is
installed on all nodes, move the temporary quorum to a shared
device.
■
If the cluster nodes are running Windows NT, reinstall the
Service Pack on each node (version 6A is recommended).
Installing MSCS and the HP NetRAID-4M
Cluster
Software
Before installing the MSCS or HP NetRAID-4M Cluster software,
start Windows and log on with administrative privileges.
