System Setup and Configuration for Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server 2-9
NOTE: For detailed instructions on using the KVM switch, refer to the
Compaq ProLiant CL380 User Guide.
15. Boot server node 2 with the SmartStart and Support Software CD in the
CD-ROM drive.
16. Repeat steps 2 through 13 to configure server node 2.
IMPORTANT: Server node 2 may lock up while installing Windows 2000 Advanced Server
(step 11 on page 2-8) because the wrong SCSI controller driver is installed automatically.
If server node 2 locks up, isolate the node from the shared storage area by pressing the
button on the shared storage isolator board that corresponds to server node 2. When
server node 2 has been isolated from the shared storage area, installation of the operating
system will continue normally.
After the Compaq Support Paq for Windows 2000 has been applied (step 12 on page 2-8),
reboot server node 2 and press the shared storage isolator board button again to allow
server node 2 to gain access to the shared storage area.
17. Continue with the system configuration by performing the steps in the
following section, "Configuring the Shared Storage."

Configuring the Shared Storage

1. Press Print Screen to access the KVM (Keyboard/Video/Mouse) switch
and choose server node 1 from the list.
NOTE: For detailed instructions on using the KVM switch, refer to the
Compaq ProLiant CL380 User Guide.
2. On server node 1, log on to Windows 2000 Advanced server and start
the CR3500 Configuration Utility found in the Compaq System Tools
Folder.
This utility allows you to configure the shared storage RAID controllers
and set up the logical drives. See Chapter 4, "CR3500 Configuration
Utility," for detailed information on this utility.
NOTE: When using the CR3500 Configuration Utility, it is only necessary to configure the
shared drives from server node 1.
NOTE: Compaq recommends that you create a 100-MB quorum drive to store cluster
information. The quorum drive may be a logical drive that is part of an array.
