VCS nodes
|
From 1 to 32 HP (Itanium or PA-RISC) systems running HP-UX 11i v3.
|
DVD drive
|
One drive in a system that can communicate to all the nodes in the cluster.
|
Disks
|
Typical VCS configurations require that shared disks support the applications that migrate between systems in the cluster.
The VCS I/O fencing feature requires that all data and coordinator disks support SCSI-3 Persistent Reservations (PR).
Note: |
On HP-UX 11i v3, you must use only DMP disk devices for I/O fencing. |
|
Disk space
|
To run VCS, LLT, GAB, the Web Console, and the Java Console, each VCS node requires the following file system space:
Note: |
VCS may require more temporary disk space during installation than the specified disk space. |
|
Network Interface Cards (NICs)
|
In addition to the built-in public NIC, VCS requires at least one more NIC per system. Symantec recommends two additional NICs.
You can also configure aggregated interfaces.
|
Fibre Channel or SCSI host bus adapters
|
Typical VCS configuration requires at least one SCSI or Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter per system for shared data disks.
|
RAM
|
Each VCS node requires at least 256 megabytes.
