Sun Cluster Data Service for ClearCase. Prepare

If builders built buildings the way programmers wrote programs, the first woodpecker to come along would destroy civilization.

Weinberg's Second Law

Building Solaris Cluster based on sparc at home is not a trivial Task. Just because lack of hardware. I had already almost everything except additional Ethernet PCI adapters. But, thanks Werner and Alex, I got two nice Dual Gigabit Ethernet PCI adapters for my tests.

Hardware:

• SunBlade 100 (karblade)
  
• Sun Ultra 60 (karu60)
  
• Sun StorEdge MultiPack UltraSCSI Drive Box
• 2 x 18 Gb SCSI hard disks
  
• PCI UltraSCSI host adapter for Blade 100
• 2 x SCSI 68-68 pin cables
  
• 2 x Dual Gigabit Ethernet PCI adapters for cluster interconnects

IP addresses and hostnames:

• 192.168.10.41   karblade
• 192.168.10.42   karu60
