Problem statement and goals for mixed clusters
Because both HP 9000 and Integrity servers will be supported on HP-UX 11i v2UD2, HP
Serviceguard customers expect to be able to configure clusters that contain both types of systems.
Providing this feature will:
• Assist customers who want to
– Transition from PA-RISC to Intel® Itanium®
– Have HP 9000 and Integrity systems coexist in their environments
• Support early HP Integrity adopters
• Provide a proven and stable path for the early majority
