4-20 Compaq ProLiant Clusters HA/F100 and HA/F200 Administrator Guide
After the installation is completed, the Compaq Server Support Software
window will show, the drivers that were updated and the drivers that
were not installed due to a current version of the driver on the node or
due to a lack of hardware on the node.
2. Install Windows NT Service Pack 6a on both nodes.
3. Install the Compaq Redundancy Manager on both nodes. See Chapter 3
for detailed information on installing Compaq Redundancy Manager.
Power down and restart both nodes when prompted to do so.
4. Install new hardware:
a. Shut down the nodes and install the second host bus adapters,
additional redundant RA4000 Controllers, the additional Fibre
Channel storage hub or FC-AL switch and cables as necessary.
IMPORTANT: To ensure that your HA/F200 cluster fails over properly, attach each host
bus adapter in a single server to a different Fibre Channel storage hub or FC-AL switch,
and attach each RA4000 Controller in the RA4000/4100 to a different Fibre Channel
storage hub or FC-AL switch. See the installation procedures in Chapter 3.
IMPORTANT: If using the Compaq StorageWorks FC-AL Switch 8 be sure to properly set
up the Port LIP Propagation Policies correctly. See Chapter 3 for more details.
b. Turn on Node 1 and run the System Configuration Utility by
pressing F10 when prompted during boot time.
c. Verify the configuration changes to the system (a host bus adapter
was added).
d. Save configuration changes and reboot.
e. Add the Fibre Channel host bus adapter driver when the Windows
2000 Advanced Server Found New Hardware Wizard appears.
5. If the firmware version numbers are the same and at least version 2.58
then skip to Step 7. Otherwise complete Step 6 to upgrade the RA4000
Controller firmware.
6. Upgrade the RA4000 Controller Firmware by creating the Options
ROMPaq diskettes from the Diskette Builder Utility:
a. This can be done by inserting the SmartStart CD and selecting Start
and then Run. In the dialog box that displays, type
where X is the drive letter associated with your CD-ROM drive.
NOTE: You can also acquire and run the latest Options ROMPaq from the Compaq
website (http://www.compaq.com/support).
b. Power down Node 1 and Node 2.
