RX6600 cluster

Hello,

I have two rx6600 boxes with SmartArray P400 controller.
I haven't any central disk storage only internal SAS disks in this servers.
I want to create SG cluster with this two servers. Does any way exists to do it with this controllers? Or do I need to buy some additional hardware?

Thank you.

Re: RX6600 cluster

no can do with just internal storage I am afraid.
You will have to buy additional external storage and Interfaces if you do not have them

Hi Marian,

Agreed with above statement, you need an external storage unit to set it up as a shared storage box without which you cannot create a cluster atall..

Shalom Marian,

SErviceguard requires shared storage.

Those systems will run Red Hat Linux.

Red Hat Clustering will cluster without shared storage.

You will have to sync the data machine to machine in that scenario. To machines can not access a single internal sas disk or disk array.
