Setting Up Cluster Groups

and Cluster Resources

After the clustering hardware has been set up and configured, and Microsoft

Windows 2000 Advanced Server and Cluster Server have been installed on

both servers, the applications to use the capabilities of clustering can be set up.

Configuring the applications will be a straightforward task if clustering needs

have been defined correctly and the applications and environment have been

determined.

Although details of the setup procedures are beyond the scope of this guide,

several documents are available from Microsoft and Compaq to assist with

these final steps.

The best source of information concerning the steps to configure cluster

groups and cluster resources is Microsoft’s Cluster Server Administrator’s

Guide.

Compaq has worked directly with several application vendors throughout the

development of Compaq ProLiant Clusters. As a result of these efforts,

Compaq provides a number of Integration TechNotes to assist you with

installing these applications in a Compaq ProLiant cluster environment.

The following technical documents are available on the Compaq website at:
