Hello,
(first sorry for the crosspost in here and the compaq
server forum, didn't knew this forum existed)
I'd like to ask for some advice / tips, after I searched the internet about this subject and haven't found any clear documentation.
Iam thinking to cluster our PDC, now a single Proliant ML350 server with RAID-bays built in. This machine is getting more and more important latley.
So my thoughts where to purchase a new compaq server or build a fast machine myself and a DASD RAID cabinet.
So when the PCD goes down the BDC can take over de RAID cabinet and act as a PDC.
Iam very new to this but am able to read and learn.
All I need is documentation.
Is what Iam asking possible, and if so, do I need third party software. Like HA software?
And does someone knows good recources on the internet?
What solution would an expert here suggest (costs effective).
Oh yes, the current compaq server has RAID built in, where the OS partition is running on. Can I keep that like this and just transfer the exsisting shares to the upcomming RAID cabinet?
Thanks in advance and sorry for the poor englisch,
John.
