i currently have a 2 node active/passive cluster. i want to do 3 active/1passive cluster. how can this be done?
Basically just add more nodes to your cluster, and new resource groups to add more EVS' too. You will have to reconfigure your heartbeat if using a crossover cable. All nodes will have to be plugged into a switch with all ports VLAN'd off for cluster communication only. Any shared disks will also have to be presented to the new cluster nodes. You should also set antiaffinity so you do not run into any issues with two EVS isntances trying to stat up on the same cluster node.

is there a paper on all the details of 4 node cluster "Oliver Moazzezi [MVP]" wrote in message news:OB28%23kbMIHA.6100@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl... > Basically just add more nodes to your cluster, and new resource groups to > add more EVS' too. > > You will have to reconfigure your heartbeat if using a crossover cable. > All nodes will have to be plugged into a switch with all ports VLAN'd off > for cluster communication only. > > Any shared disks will also have to be presented to the new cluster nodes. > > You should also set antiaffinity so you do not run into any issues with > two EVS isntances trying to stat up on the same cluster node. > > Oliver > >>i currently have a 2 node active/passive cluster. i want to do 3 >>active/1passive cluster. how can this be done? > >
