2.6 Upgrading or Modifying Clusters
Factory-integrated clusters are not designed for field upgrades using preinstalled servers,
(otherwise known as Microsoft Windows Compute Cluster 2003 standalone servers). To find
out whether an upgrade is available for your cluster, contact your HP sales and service
representative, or authorized HP reseller.
CAUTION: Never add components to an HP Cluster Platform rack, even if available space
exists in the rack. Your HP Cluster Platform is engineered to prevent thermal problems and to
ensure proper power load balancing. Adding components, or otherwise modifying the rack
might result in degraded performance.
