Introduction
This document defines the configuration that Hewlett-Packard supports for the HP NetServer LH 3000, 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.
