Preparing Your Systems for
Clustering
CAUTION:
Only trained service technicians are authorized to remove and access
any of the components inside the system. For complete information about safety
precautions, working inside the computer, and protecting against electrostatic
discharge, see the safety information that shipped with your system.
Cluster Configuration Overview
1
Ensure that your site can handle the cluster’s power requirements.
Contact your sales representative for information about your region's
power requirements.
2
Install the systems, the shared storage array(s), and the interconnect
switches (for example, in an equipment rack), and ensure that all the
components are turned on.
NOTE:
For more information on step 3 to step 7 and step 10 to step 13, see the
"Preparing your systems for clustering" section of

Deploy the operating system (including any relevant service packs and
hotfixes), network adapter drivers, and storage adapter drivers (including
Multipath I/O (MPIO) drivers) on each cluster node. Depending on the
deployment method that is used, it may be necessary to provide a network
connection to successfully complete this step.
NOTE:
To help in planning and deployment of your cluster, record the relevant
cluster configuration information in the Cluster Data Form located at "Cluster
Data Form" on page 49 and the iSCSI configuration information in the iSCSI
Configuration Worksheet located at "iSCSI Configuration Worksheet" on
page 51.
