7 Microsoft Cluster Server Software Setup
During installation of Microsoft Cluster Server Software (MSCS) at System A, you will create a Microsoft
Cluster Server. Initially, it is a cluster with only one server (System A). Later, you will join System B to the
cluster and thus create a standard two-server (node) cluster. If you need more information about the
installation process outlined here, see the Microsoft Cluster Server Administrators Guide.
Install MSCS on System A
MSCS installation includes slightly different software setups for System A and System B. Since you just
finished configuring arrays on System A, continue Microsoft Cluster Server Setup where you left off with
Disk Administrator.
To install MSCS at System A:
1.
Insert the Component CD of Microsoft Windows NT Server, Enterprise Edition in the CD-ROM drive of
System B.
2.
Run the Microsoft Cluster Server setup program.
Setup.exe is located in the following folder on the Component CD: \
mscs\cluster\i386
3.
Choose
Form a new cluster
and click
Next
.
Setup prompts you to identify the cluster by name.
4.
Type a name for the cluster. Make note of the name you type. You will need to provide the identical
name during Microsoft Cluster Server software setup of System A. Click
