HP NetServer LPr with HP Rack Storage/12 Windows 2000 Advanced Server Cluster Configuration Guide 1 February 2001 (see Versions at the end of this document) Introduction This document defines the supported HP NetServer LPr configurations with HP Rack Storage/12 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.
