6516.0. "Windows NT cluster configuration" by TKOVOA::OBARA_J () Wed Mar 26 1997 00:21



 I would be appreciated it if anybody could suggest me 
about Windows NT cluster configuration. I probably think 
the following is correct: 

Terminator(H879-AA)			       Terminator(H879-AA)	                            
& Y-cable(BN21W-0F) *                          & Y-cable(BN21W-0F)
                                     
              SCSI cable       SCSI cable

  The kit also contains Windows NT cluster software.


 Any pointers would be helpful. Thanks.

	Thank you, Kimura-san. Jun Obara
6516.3	move the SW310 to the end of the bus	MSE1::PCOTE	press one now for personal name	`Thu Mar 27 1997 07:36`	10
	That configuration won't work. The SW310 is positioned in the middle of the bus. The SW310 supplies bus termination. Thus, it has to be at the end of the SCSI bus. The only way to get that configuration to work is to remove the terminator resisitor SIPs from the internal dwzzb in the SW310. (which I strongly don't recommend) Paul
