Each server must be able access to the other’s storage in order to respond successfully to requests that had been handled by the failed server. Currently, only the Compaq RAID Array 4000, formerly the Compaq Fibre Channel Storage System, allows for multi-server (multi- initiator) control of external storage on ProLiant servers. - Page 4 Fibre Channel Array Controllers, and cables for the Disk link. If the primary interconnect fails, communication continues over the backup. The ProLiant Cluster for NetWare 4.2 consists of ProLiant Servers, the Compaq StorageWorks RAID Array 4000 storage system, Novell High Availability Server, Novell NetWare 4.2, and at least two network adapters.
