interconnect, you can more easily alter or expand your cluster ’ s hardware configuration as newer and faster technologies become available. 1.2 Over vie w of the T ruCluster Ser ver Hard ware Configuration A T ruCluster Server hardware configuration consists of a number of highly specific hardware components: • T ruCluster Server currently sup[...]

contains up to eight linecards. The Memory Channel adapter in each system in the cluster is connected to the Memory Channel hub. One or two Memory Channel adapters can be used with T ruCluster Server . When dual Memory Channel adapters are installed, if the Memory Channel adapter being used for cluster communication fails, the communication will fa[...]

The operating system disk (T ru64 UNIX disk) cannot be used as a clusterwide disk, a member boot disk, or as the quorum disk. Because the T ru64 UNIX operating system will be available on the first cluster member , in an emergency , after shutting down the cluster , you have the option of booting the T ru64 UNIX operating system and attempting to f[...]

A member boot disk cannot contain one of the clusterwide root ( / ), /usr , and /var file systems. Also, a member boot disk cannot be used as the quorum disk. A member disk can contain more than the three required partitions. Y ou can move the swap partition off the member boot disk. See the T ruCluster Server Cluster Administration manual for more[...]

Note that in the configuration shown in Figure 1 – 6, there is only one shared SCSI bus. Even by mirroring the clusterwide root and member boot disks, the single shared SCSI bus is a single point of failure. 1.6.5 Creating a NSPOF Cluster T o create a no-single-point-of-failure (NSPOF) cluster: • Use hardware RAID to mirror the clusterwide root[...]

3.2.1 SCSI Bus V er sus SCSI Bus Segments An UltraSCSI bus may be comprised of multiple UltraSCSI bus segments. Each UltraSCSI bus segment is comprised of electrical conductors that may be in a cable or a backplane, and cable or backplane connectors. Each UltraSCSI bus segment must have a terminator at each end of the bus segment. Up to two UltraSC[...]

See Section 9.1 for information about using the DWZZ* series of SCSI signal converters. Y ou cannot use a DWZZA or DWZZB signal converter at UltraSCSI speeds for T ruCluster Se[...]

SCSI bus adapters have a default SCSI ID that you can change by using console commands or utilities. For example, a KZPSA adapter has an initial SCSI ID of 7. ______________________ Note _______________________ If you are using a DS-DWZZH-05 UltraSCSI hub with fair arbitration enabled, SCSI ID numbering will change (see Section 3.6.1.2).

Most devices have internal termination. For example, the UltraSCSI KZPBA-CB and the fast and wide KZPSA-BB host bus adapters have internal termination. When using a KZPBA-CB or KZPSA-BB with an UltraSCSI hub, ensure that the onboard termination resistor SIPs have not been removed. Y ou will need to provide termination at the storage end of one SCSI[...]

Each path between a Fibre Channel host bus adapter in a host computer and an active host port on an HSG80 controller is a connection. During Fibre Channel initialization, when a controller becomes aware of a connection to a host bus adapter through a switch, it adds the connection to its table of known connections. The unit offset for the connectio[...]

Most data traffic in existing customer networks is sent over Local Area Networks (LANs) such as Ethernet or T oken Ring networks. The services provided by the LANs differ from those of A TM, for example: • LAN messages are connectionless; ATM is a connection-oriented technology • Because a LAN is based on a shared medium, it is easy to broadcas[...]

9.1 Using SCSI Bus Signal Con ver ters A SCSI bus signal converter allows you to couple a differential bus segment to a single-ended bus segment, allowing the mixing of differential and single-ended devices on the same SCSI bus to isolate bus segments for maintenance purposes. Each SCSI signal converter has a single-ended side and a differential si[...]

Whenever possible, connect devices to a shared bus so that they can be isolated from the bus. This allows you to disconnect devices from the bus for maintenance purposes without affecting bus termination and cluster operation. Y ou also can set up a shared SCSI bus so that you can connect additional devices at a later time without affecting bus ter[...]
