Cluster Configuration Guide

25 November, 1998

Introduction

This document defines the supported HP NetServer LX Pro, LXe Pro and A3661B High Availability Disk

Array Model 30/FC (LX, LXe/Model 30-FC) configurations for Microsoft Cluster Server. These

configurations minimize single points of failure, provide maximum availability, and have been certified by

Hewlett-Packard and Microsoft. This guide is prescriptive; it describes the configurations supported by HP.

Any configuration not expressly allowed by this guide will not be supported by HP.
