You can install an InfoScale product on a system where another InfoScale product is already installed.
The following table provides the supported co-existence scenarios.
Table: InfoScale products co-existence
Note: |
** If you have configured Microsoft Failover Cluster, you must unconfigure it and remove the SFW component for the Failover Cluster, before installing InfoScale Availability. To unconfigure Microsoft Failover Cluster, refer to Microsoft documentation. To remove the SFW component for Failover Cluster, use Windows Add Remove Programs. On the System Selection panel of the product installer, clear the check box for Microsoft Failover Cluster. |
Note that the following limitations apply in case of InfoScale Availability and InfoScale Storage co-existence:
If Keyless licensing type is selected during the product installation, checks performed to monitor the number of days of product installation are based on the SFW component. As a result, if you do not enter a valid license key or do not add the host as a managed host within 60 days of InfoScale Storage installation, a non-compliance error is logged every 4 hrs in the Event Viewer.
After InfoScale Storage is installed, the VCS configuration wizards discover only SFW dynamic disks for configuring storage resources in an application service group. If you have already configured NetApp or native disk (LDM) resources, you can continue to use them. However, you cannot add or remove any of these resources using the VCS configuration wizards. Then, you must manually modify the service group to add or delete the NetApp or LDM resources.
