Windows Server 2008 cluster and upgrade MSA 500

[Diego Martin Jimenez]

Windows Server 2008 and its Failover Clustering does not support Parallel SCSI, only Fibre, iSCSI and SAS.

Does anyone know if upgrading MSA500 to MSA1000 is valid for creating a cluster in Windows 2008?

Hi Karlo,

Thanks, i already saw that thread. We believe that upgrading msa500 to msa1000 will pass the Failover clustering test prior to cluster creation, but before purchasing the upgrade to msa1000 we would like to be more sure about it, but it is difficult to find a valid or trust information (i.e from Microsoft or HP).
