 Overview

The easy to install Packaged Cluster combines the power and reliability of the ProLiant DL380 G5 server with the high performance and scalability of the MSA2000fc storage system. This combination provides unsurpassed availability to your data. It will support up to 8-node clustering and multi path shared storage, providing excellent failover for increased uptime. With the redundancy built-in the new ProLiant Servers and HP Modular Smart Array, the Package Cluster increases reliability and eliminates downtime. HP can provide all hardware components to build your own cluster solution.

The HP StorageWorks 2000fc Modular Smart Array offers the very latest in efficient consolidation, functionality and technology at very affordable prices. The MSA2000fc features a high-performance 4Gb Fibre Channel connected array. The performance and scalability of the MSA2000fc allow customers to grow their storage as demands increase. The packaged cluster supports Microsoft Windows® Server 2008, 2003, Linux and VMware operating systems for standard and clustered configurations.
