Configuring a High Availability Cluster

Adding Completely Configured Storage Routers

You may prefer to completely configure both storage routers (including SCSI
routing instances and access lists) as standalone systems before joining them into
a cluster.
The following example explains the steps required to create a cluster named
Cluster1, composed of two storage routers named StorageRouterSys1 and
StorageRouterSys2. This example assumes that both storage routers are fully
configured with SCSI routing instances and access lists. (See
"Configuring SCSI Routing"
command to assign a preferred storage router to any or all of the SCSI routing
instances, if desired.
Note:
To create a cluster from fully configured storage routers:
1. Use the setup cluster configuration wizard to define StorageRouterSys1 as a
