High-availability pair terminology changes
The high-availability (HA) functionality referred to as an HA pair in Data
ONTAP 8.0 was called an active/active configuration in the Data ONTAP 7.2
and 7.3 release families. In the Data ONTAP 7.1 release family and earlier
releases, an HA pair was called a cluster. HA functionality is a distinct,
separate feature from Data ONTAP 8.0 Cluster-Mode clustering. For more
information about these features, see the Data ONTAP 8.0 7-Mode
High-Availability Configuration Guide.
