HP CIFS Server Administrator's Guide (5900-1282, April 2011)

In this example, "serverC" is the alternate path for "linkb". Because of this, if "serverB" goes
down, "linkb" can still be accessed from "serverC". "linka" and "linkb" are share names.
Accessing either one will take users directly to the appropriate share on the network.
Refer to the following screen snapshot for an example:

MC/ServiceGuard High Availability Support
Highly Available HP CIFS Server allows the HP CIFS Server product to run on an MC/ServiceGuard
cluster of nodes. MC/ServiceGuard allows you to create high availability clusters of HP 9000
server computers.
Template files for version A.02.02 have been revised to allow any number of cluster nodes and
other advantages over previous schemes.
