4.1.3 NetWare 6.5 SP8 (OES 2 SP1 NetWare)
NetWare
®
6.5 Support Pack 8 (the same as Novell Open Enterprise Server (OES) 2 SP1 NetWare)
must be installed and running on every node in each peer cluster that will be part of the business
continuity cluster.
See the OES 2 SP1: NetWare Installation Guide for information on installing and configuring
NetWare 6.5 SP8 (same as OES 2 SP1 NetWare).
4.1.4 Novell Cluster Services 1.8.5 for NetWare
You need two to four clusters with Novell Cluster Services™ 1.8.5 (the version that ships with
NetWare 6.5 SP8 (same as OES 1 SP2 NetWare) installed and running on each node in the cluster.
See the OES 2 SP2: Novell Cluster Services 1.8.5 for NetWare Administration Guide for information
on installing, configuring, and managing Novell Cluster Services.
Consider the following when preparing your clusters for the business continuity cluster:

“Storage” on page 39

“eDirectory” on page 39

“Peer Cluster Credentials” on page 40
Cluster Names
Each cluster must have a unique name, even if the clusters reside in different Novell eDirectory
TM
trees. Clusters must not have the same name as any of the eDirectory trees in the business continuity
cluster.
Storage
The storage requirements for Novell Business Continuity Clustering software are the same as for
Novell Cluster Services. For more information, see the following in the
OES 2 SP2: Novell Cluster
Services 1.8.5 for NetWare Administration Guide :
Š
“ Hardware Requirements ”
Š
“ Shared Disk System Requirements ”
Š
“ Rules for Using Disks in a Shared Storage Space ”
Some storage vendors require you to purchase or license their CLI (Command Line Interface)
separately. The CLI for the storage system might not initially be included with your hardware.
Also, some storage hardware may not be SMI-S compliant and cannot be managed by using SMI-S
commands.
eDirectory
The recommended configuration is to have each cluster in the same eDirectory tree but in different
OUs (Organizational Units). This guide focuses on the single-tree setup.
