Monitoring for Transitions

Use the Alarm Viewer to watch for transition activity on a cluster. From the ServerWORKS Manager Console, click on the Alarm Viewer status button for the severity that you chose for the Not current controller and current controller alarm. If a server resource has transitioned from one server to another, the alarm appears in the Alarm Viewer. Double-click on the alarm to see the details.

DIGITAL Server Cluster Kits

DIGITAL Server Cluster Kit Overview

The DIGITAL Server Cluster Kits are designed to simplify the ordering and building of a NT cluster using either DCNT or MSCS. DIGITAL Server Cluster Kits contain all the necessary base components, including:

Storage array (both RAID and JBOD versions are available)

SCSI bus hardware (host adapters, controllers/signal converters, cables and termination)

Note: The NTSBU only supports the 2944UW on MSCS. However, we do support the KZPSA with DCNT. StorageWorks supports the KZ board with MSCS. You'll see a few of their configurations on Microsoft's HCL.

RAID controller (where applicable)

Private network hardware (network adapters and cable)

RAID Management software and firmware

ServerWORKS Manager software
