HP Netserver LC 2000 with NetRAID-2M (HP Rack Storage/12) Windows NT® 4.0 Enterprise Edition Cluster Configuration Guide Introduction This document defines the server cluster configurations supported by Hewlett-Packard for interconnection of two HP Netserver LC 2000 servers and one or multiple HP Rack Storage/12 disk drive enclosure(s), with Microsoft® Cluster Server software. These configurations provide high server cluster availability and minimize single points of failure (SPOFs). A configuration certified and supported by both Hewlett-Packard and Microsoft® is included, but any cluster configuration that conforms to the guidelines of this document will be supported by Hewlett-Packard. Deviations from the supported configurations can result in an inoperative cluster, an operating cluster with degraded performance, or hidden SPOFs. Therefore, deviations are not supported. For revision/update information on this document, refer to Versions on page 7. Cluster Configuration Elements This section identifies the hardware components, system software, network interfaces, and power distribution arrangement required to build an operational server cluster supported by Hewlett-Packard. The various server cluster elements are listed below, and their associated configuration data is detailed in separate tables and illustrations that follow. • Server configuration • Shared storage configuration • Microsoft® and HP certified server configuration • Intra-cluster (heartbeat) LAN configuration • Client LAN configuration • SCSI cabling and power distribution configuration Server Configuration Parameter Server Type Number of nodes Clock speed Number of CPUs BIOS CPU cache RAM Specification HP Netserver LC 2000, Ultra3 embedded SCSI models Two Do not mix ultra2 and ultra3 models within a cluster. Each node must be the same server type, but nodes may differ in their CPU clock speeds and cache sizes, and amounts of main memory. 1 GHz This certification covers any CPU speed within 500 MHz of the certified rate.
