Determine the processor and memory requirements needed to support the
clustered applications and services that will run on each node while the cluster
is in a normal operating state.
If the program files of a clustered application and/or service will reside on
local storage, remember to add that capacity to the amount of local storage
needed on each node.
For all files that will reside on shared storage, see “Shared Storage Capacity”
later in this chapter.
Server Capacity
The capacity needed in each server depends on whether you design your
cluster as an active/active configuration or as an active/standby configuration.
Capacity planning for each configuration is discussed in the following
sections.
Active/Active Configuration
As described earlier in this chapter, an active/active configuration can be
designed in two ways:
■
Applications and services may be configured to fail over from each node
to its partner node.
■
Applications and services may be configured to fail over from just one
node to its partner node.
