NAS b3000 v2 as a Clustered Pair
The following describes how to configure the NAS b3000 v2 as a clustered pair.
1. Configure each NAS device in the cluster using Chapters 2 and 3 from this
guide.
2. Identify the firmware, storage network topology (hub vs. switch), and storage
controller features in use on the SAN. Prior to connecting any fiber cables,
utilize the SAN Connection tool included in the HP Utilities Tab of the
WebUI to configure the HBA and corresponding pathing software.
3. This is an optional step. Install NIC teaming software and create fault
tolerant or load balanced network ports. Follow the recommendations found
in this guide and in the administration guide.
4. Connect the fiber channel cables to the storage switch or hub. If selective
storage presentation (SSP) is being used, the administrator will need to enable
the connections one at a time as the cables are connected. See the cluster setup
instructions included in Chapter 4 of this guide prior to enabling any of the
presented storage.
5. Place the NAS device into an active directory or Windows NT 4.0 domain for
ease of manageability. This is required for clustered systems.
