Hi, guys.

I need some help!!

I have this configuration:
2 Compaq Proliant ML 350G3
2 Controller Adaptec 2100S
1 HP Rack Storage/12

The cluster service is OK, but when the first node fail, the second node have problem tryng to access shared ARRAY. If I restart the second node (the first is down) all goes up fine. I think that there is an error in configuration of the shared bus, but I don't know what.

Help me, please....

thanks a lot!!
 
Sounds like the SCSI id's on the Adaptec card are both on the default value of 7- try chnaging the valu of one of them
 
No, is not because SCSI id. If the SCSI id will be the same will not work at all.
It's more because of active termination on your SCSI bus. that means that the termination is given to the bus just when the device on that bus is on.
Try to boot your computer, and press F8. Let it wait in that menu. So, in this way your cluster service on that pc wil not start, but the active termination will work.

How to solve it? Use a Y cable, and put a hardware termination.
