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
