ClusterPack V2.5 Release Note

Comprehensive Install Instructions

Background

ClusterPack simplifies the creation and administration of a cluster of HP Integrity

Servers running HP-UX by automating the collection, recording, and distribution of

information about the systems in a network. The system administrator must still

make decisions about how to identify and secure those network components. All of

these decisions can be recorded on this form which is then used as the installation

process is performed.

Overview

Print out this form and fill out all the information for each node in your cluster.
