4. Creating or Joining a Cluster Cluster Service Configuration Wizard Create or Join a Cluster You can create a new cluster, or you can join an existing one. < BackCancel Next > This server is: The first node in the cluster. If this server is the first node in a cluster, you are creating a new cluster. The second or next node in the cluster. If at least one other node already exists, you are joining an existing cluster. Cluster Service Configuration Wizard Cluster Name You must name the new cluster. < BackCancel Next > Type a name for the new cluster: CLUSTER1

5. Cluster Service Account Cluster Service Configuration Wizard Select an Account For security purposes, the Cluster service must use a domain account. < BackCancel Next > Type the user name and password for the domain account you want the Cluster service to use. This account is given special security privileges on each cluster node. User name:clusterservice Password: Domain:NWTRADERS

6. Cluster Disks and Cluster File Storage Cluster Service Configuration Wizard Add or Remove Managed Disks The disks that Cluster service controls access to are known as managed disks. < BackCancel Next > Add the disks that you want the cluster to manage. Remove those disks that you do not want the cluster to manage. Unmanaged disks:Managed disks: <-Remove Add -> Caution: the likelihood of corruption of unmanaged NTFS disks on a shared bus is very high. It is recommended that you use Cluster service to manage these disks. Disk 1 M: (sahredscsi) N: (sharedscsi) Cluster Service Configuration Wizard Cluster File Storage You store cluster checkpoint and log files on a cluster disk. These files help manage the cluster. < BackCancel Next > Select a disk on which to store cluster checkpoint and log files. Select a disk or partition with at least 5 MB of free space (100 MB recommended). It is also recommended that you keep the cluster checkpoint and log files on a separate partition from user applications. Disks: M: (sharedscsi) N: (sharedscsi)

7. Configuring Cluster Communications Cluster Service Configuration Wizard Network Connections Type the network name, and specify whether this network will perform as a public, private or mixed network. < BackCancel Next > Network name:Private Cluster Connection Device:NETGEAR FA310TX Fast Ethernet Adapter (NGRPCI) IP address:100.100.100.1 Enable this network for cluster use This network performs the following role in the cluster: Client access only (public network) Internal cluster communications only (private network) All communications (mixed network) Cluster Service Configuration Wizard Network Connections Type the network name, and specify whether this network will perform as a public, private or mixed network. < BackCancel Next > Network name:Public Cluster Connection Device:Realtrek RTL8029(AS) PCI Ethernet Adapter IP address:200.200.200.1 Enable this network for cluster use This network performs the following role in the cluster: Client access only (public network) Internal cluster communications only (private network) All communications (mixed network)
