3
Cable the controllers across a shared SCSI channel to the
shared clustered storage devices. For instructions, see Installing
the Controller Card on page 2-3 and on page 2-6. Make sure that
the controllers are SCSI terminated for the shared channel.
4
Install one of the following operating systems on each cluster
node (all nodes must run the same operating system):
– Windows NT Enterprise Server V4.0 with Service Pack 3 (or
higher)
– Windows 2000 with the most recent service pack
During installation of the operating system, install the
controller device drivers appropriate for that operating system.
For information about installing the device drivers, see
Chapter 4, Installing the Device Drivers.
Note:
Service Pack 3, which is the minimal service
pack required to run Microsoft Cluster Service (MSCS)
software, is integrated with Windows NT Enterprise
Server V4.0. For convenience, you can install Service
Pack 3 when you install Windows NT and upgrade to
Service Pack 6A (which is recommended) following
the installation of the Microsoft Cluster Service
software.
5
On each cluster node, install the Controller Management
Software. For information about installing the Controller
Management Software, see Chapter 5, Installing the Controller
Management Software.
