Compaq DIGITAL Server Cluster Kits for Windows NT Network Card User Manual


 
If you plan to use an existing server, check the following tables to make sure that it is supported.
Pair any existing server with a new server capable of handling the workload of both servers. It is
recommended that both servers provide the same basic performance capabilities (for example,
purchase a second 5100 to pair with an existing 5100). Two identical servers provide for optimal
performance in the event of failover, although Compaq will support non-identical Alpha-based or
Intel-based DIGITAL Servers (mixed server architecture clusters are not supported). Make sure
that each server has sufficient internal storage for operating system, cluster and application
software.
