4. Install and configure one HBA in each server.
5. Install StorageWorks Command Console (SWCC) by
Compaq.
6. Configure the storage subsystem for Fibre Channel.
7. Verify the storage controller properties.
8. Configure the storagesets.
9. Connect the HBAs to either the Fibre Channel hub or the
switch.
10. Install the Microsoft cluster software (Microsoft Cluster
Server or Microsoft Cluster Service). Install the latest
Microsoft Service Pack before installing Microsoft Cluster
Server.
11. For Windows NT, rerun the Support Paq to make sure the
