These configurations minimize single points of failure (SPOF), provide maximum availability, and have been certified by Hewlett-Packard and Microsoft.

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.
