However, HP supports the configuration of HA cluster software in a single system to allow the highest possible availability for those users that need the benefits of a non-clustered solution, such as scalability and manageability.
  • Page 19 Since no single system solution in the industry provides protection against a SPOF, users that still need this kind of safety and HP's highest availability should use HA cluster software in a multiple system HA configuration. Multiple HA software clusters can be configured within a single Superdome system (i.e., two 4-node clusters configured...
