Configuring Cluster Services
To complete the cluster configuration:

installing and configuring Cluster Services.

4. Rerun the ProLiant Support Pack for Windows 2000 to be sure the latest HP
drivers were not overwritten by the service pack. Reboot, if prompted.

1. Select Start, Programs, Administrative Tools, Cluster Administrator, and
connect to the cluster.
2. Right-click one group. Select Move Group.
3. Verify the group fails over to the other node and all resources come online.

5. Verify that the group fails back to the original node and all resources come
online.
6. Repeat steps 2 through 5 for each group.
Configuration is now complete.
