6. Click (
Configure for clustering
) on the tool bar. The Configure for
clustering window opens.
7. Provide the following information.
Notes:
a. The controller name and partner name are case sensitive.
b. If your configuration will contain multiple ServeRAID controllers pairs, each
controller name must be unique.
Controller name
Enter a name to identify the first controller, for example, Server A.
Partner name
Enter a name that you will use to identify the second controller, for
example, Server B.
SCSI initiator IDs
The system presets these IDs to 7. For Server B, do not change these
values. For Server A, set each ID to 6 for shared channels.
Note: The ServeRAID Manager program does not permit you to enter
numbers other than 6 and 7.
8. Click OK. The controller is now configured for clustering.
Configuring ServeRAID arrays and a logical drive
Important
v
Create only one logical drive for each array when defining shared logical drives for
use in a cluster.
v
Hot-spare and standby hot-spare drives must be defined only on a shared channel, and
each controller must have its own hot-spare or standby hot-spare drive defined. This
means that you must not define the same hot-spare or standby hot-spare drive on both
controllers in the pair.
