Re: 2003 Cluster with IBM Server

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry



>From what I remember when I was young and working with IBM Netfinity's and
ServeRaids in Cluster, The process was the following:

1.- Cluster installation in one node with Local Quorum, like you have
2.- Install a specific software from IBM that install a DLL called IPSA*.DLL
3.- Open cluster Administrator and you will find a new resource type
associated to Physical Disk but with an IBM flavor name
4.- Add Shared disks using new Resource
5.- Move Quorum
