2.1.3 Novell Cluster Services 1.8.2 for NetWare

Two to four clusters with Novell Cluster Services™ 1.8.2 (the version that ships with NetWare 6.5
Support Pack 5) or later installed and running on each node in the cluster.
Each cluster must have a unique name, even if the clusters reside in different Novell eDirectory™
trees, and clusters must not have the same name as any of the eDirectory trees in the business
continuity cluster.
See the

The recommended configuration is to have each cluster be in the same eDirectory tree. You can have
a business continuity cluster with clusters in separate eDirectory trees. See
"Implementing a Multiple-Tree BCC," on page 81
You must have the nwcs18pt3 or later cluster patch. See
cgi-bin/search/searchtid.cgi?/2974985.htm). This patch can only be applied to NetWare 6.5 Support
Pack 5. If you have upgraded to NetWare 6.5 Support Pack 6, this patch is not required.
The recommended configuration of a business continuity cluster is to have each Novell Cluster
Services cluster be in the same eDirectory tree. You can have a business continuity cluster with
clusters in separate eDirectory trees. See

In order to add or change cluster peer credentials, you must access iManager on a server that is in the
same eDirectory tree as the cluster you are adding or changing peer credentials for.
