Re: OpenVMS 8.3-1H1 cluster configuration documentation
The 8.3-1H1 documentation set is available at http://h71000.www7.hp.com/doc/os83_index.html
The manual you want to review is the "Guidelines for OpenVMS Cluster Configurations" (available in both PDF and HTML).
Presuming that you want things to be symmetric, and there are only two nodes, a quorum disk will be needed. A note of caution: check to make sure that your SAN controller is qualified for use in an OpenVMS cluster.

Re: OpenVMS 8.3-1H1 cluster configuration documentation
The trick to a reliable cluster is to make sure you have a completely defined cluster environment. There are many files, scattered all over the place, and, unfortunately, not very well documented.
The most complete documentation is in SYS$STARTUP:SYLOGICALS.TEMPLATE (thanks to Hoff!) I recommend defining EVERYTHING, even if you don't think you'll use the component.
Chances are if you're just two nodes, you'll be sharing a system disk, so most of your files will be "naturally" shared if you leave them in their default locations.
Even in the simple case, my preference is to move ALL the files onto another disk, as if you were configuring a multi system disk cluster. In SYLOGICALS.COM mount the configuration disk and execute SYLOGICALS.COM over there to define the entire environment.
Good luck!

Re: OpenVMS 8.3-1H1 cluster configuration documentation
It's not unusual for the spec and ordering process to be quite protracted for a VMS system. If an Ambassador is involved then this can speed the process up significantly. If they're not and it's a marketing person that's asking for the specs, it can be really slow.
There are, however, exceptions to every generalization and some staff within HP are very good at turning the orders round PDQ.
