Ask the Wizard Questions

SCSI device and allocation classes

The Question is: 

In a cluster where disks are served by 2 systems,
each with an alloclass not null, and one of the systems
boots on a SCSI device, each system has 1 SCSI bus,
how is it possible to mscp serve the disks without
a warning message in the boot, since mscp_serve_all
must be set on the system that boots from a SCSI device
and both systems have a -different- dka400, the CDROM
device. The system thats boots ftom the scsi device cannot
serve its boot device without serving the cdrom.

The Answer is: 

You must change the SCSI id of one of the CDroms.  When you have 2 systems
with the same ALLOCLASS you need to make sure that you do not have the same
physical device names connected to non-shared busses.
