Hi,

The RX 6600 Server Having the Dedicate HBA Card & LAN Card.


In this Blade Server BL 870C the HBA Card & LAN Card is Dedicate or Coming from the Pass through.

Yes It is Possible to Configure the 2 Node MCSG Cluster with External Disk.

For Configuring the Cluster need 2 LAN Card on both Server & 2 HBA on the Both Server

Please let me know which External Storage is usingh HP,EMC or IBM.

Yes, its possible.

ususally we tried to have the same server models for performance requirements.

if you just need the 2 node cluster, then its ok with the servers you have.

which Storage
If money is not the concern, I will go with HP.
we did have both HP, and EMC.
