Introduction
This document defines the supported HP NetServer LH 3 with A3661B High Availability Disk Array
Model 30/FC (LH 3/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 HP NetServer LH 3 / Model 30-FC
configurations supported by HP. Any configuration not expressly allowed by this guide will not be
supported by HP.

5
Basic Configuration with Single Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop Hub
Port connections to this
hub are for example
only. You can use any
port, except forport 10
on Long Wave Hubs.
The remaining ports can
be used for connection
of additional Disk Arrays.
See Shared
Storage Cables for
a list of cables that
can be connected
to the Short Wave
Ports of the hub.
6
Basic Configuration with Cascaded Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop
Hubs
See Shared
Storage Cables for
a list of cables that
can be connected
to the Short Wave
Ports of the hub.
Port connections to
these hubs are for
example only. You can
use any port, except for
port 10 on Long Wave
Hubs. Theremaining
ports can be used for
connection of additional
Disk Arrays.
See Shared Storage
Cables for a list of
cables that can be
connected between
hubs. Port 10 is used
exclusively in Long
Wave hubs for hub-to-
hub connection.

Redundant Configuration with Single Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop Hub
See Shared
Storage Cables for
a list of cables that
can be connected
to the Short Wave
Ports of the hub.
Port connections to
these hubs are for
example only. You can
use any port, except for
port 10 on Long Wave
Hubs. The remaining
ports can be used for
connection of additional
Disk Arrays.
8
Redundant Configuration with Cascaded Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop Hubs

Storage Cables for
a list of cables that
can be connected
between hubs.
Port 10 is used
exclusively in Long
Wave hubs for hub-
to-hub connection.
Port connections to
these hubs are for
example only. You
can use any port,
except for port 10on
Long Wave Hubs. The
remaining ports can
be used for
connection of
additional Disk Arrays.
See Shared
Storage Cables for
a list of cables that
can be connected
to the Short Wave
Ports of the hub.
