I have to configure two Windows 2k3 2-node clusters within one C class enclosure. The blades servers are BL460C and there are 2 GbE2c interconnect modules.
Each blade server has 2 NICS, one will be dedicated to public networking and the second one to heartbeat communication.
What would be the best configuration for heartbeat NICS's?
- two dedicated ports on the Gb2Ec module # 2 with 2 tagged VLANS and a physical cable connecting the 2 ports?
- Or can I use only one port with 2 tagged VLAN's and no cable connected?
-Or can I use one port per cluster with no cable connected ?
Any suggestion or documentation would be appreciated.
Regards,
Thomas Nobis

Re: 2 cluster heartbeats within one c class blade enclosure
That's probably the solution I am going to try.
I will use NIC 2 of the first node and NIC 1 of the second node for the heartbeat. Then I'll use ports 17 and 18 (tagged) to link the 2 Gb2Ec interconnect modules and create a Vlan dedicated to heartbeat.
I'll do te same for the 2nd cluster.
Any idea of what happens if one of the Gb2Ec modules goes down ? I'm sure the heartbeat will go down too but I am not sure of the consequences of losing the heartbeat...
Regards
Thomas

Re: 2 cluster heartbeats within one c class blade enclosure
All that applies if this is a C7000 enclosure. If the enclosure is a C300 it will be a totally different scenario.

Re: 2 cluster heartbeats within one c class blade enclosure
Hi Thomas,
I am currently having similar challenge, setting up heartbeat on a blade c7000 enclosure, can you still remember how you setup the heart beat.
thank you
