Hi,
I have two HP Proliant servers which I would to do clustering with shared disk on MSA30.
I came to know from this forum, that MSA30 does not support clustering ( for shared disk ), what other options do I have?
I would not want to buy a new HP storage that supports clustering.
Please help.
Thanks
P.S. This thread has been moved from General to Storage Area Networks (SAN) (Small and Medium Business). - Hp forum moderator

Re: MSA30 for 2-node Clustering
SB - single bus (1 server only)
DB - dual bus (1 server only)
MI - multi initiator (2 servers - hp-ux only!)
So you cannot share the MSA30 between 3 proliants, you need another storage.
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

SolutionThe msa30 is just a JBOD, proliant server need to connect using a smartarray controller - hp-ux server can also use "normal" SCSI controllers.
Since you cannot share disks between array controllers, you cannot share the jbod.
See also the manuals on
http://www.hp.com/go/bsc
and the quickspecs.
Hope this helps!

Torsten.
