Installing clustering software requires several specific steps and guidelines that
might not be necessary when installing software on a single server. Read and
understand the following items before proceeding with any software installation:
Be sure that you have sufficient software licensing rights to install the
Microsoft® Windows® operating system and software applications on each
server.
Be sure the Fibre Channel storage hub or Fabric switch has AC power.
Power up the storage system before the cluster nodes are powered up.
Log on to the domain using an account that has administrative permissions
on both cluster nodes. When installing MSCS, both cluster nodes must be in
the same Microsoft® Windows® Server 2003, Enterprise Edition or
Microsoft® Windows® 2000 Advanced Server domain. The cluster nodes
can be members of an existing Microsoft® Windows® Server 2003,
Enterprise Edition or Microsoft® Windows® 2000 Advanced Server
domain.
Configure the logical drives in the storage system storage system using the
ACU.
When the ACU runs on the first cluster node, configure the shared drives in
the storage system. If the utility is used to configure internal storage on the
second cluster node, it will display information on the shared drives that was
entered when the ACU was run on the first node.
