830.0. "AlphaStations supported in NT clusters?" by NQOS01::nqsrv404.nqo.dec.com::S_Chmura () Tue May 27 1997 18:48

One of our customers has many AlphaStations at their site, and wanted
to configure 2 of them in a Windows NT Cluster for a high availability
Web server.  They are AlphaStation 600 /333, and AlphaStation 500 /333
& /400 workstations.

 1. Will AlphaStations 'work' in Windows NT clusters?

 2. Is this supported by Digital?  [I haven't seen this yet]

 3. Is support planned?

 4. What additional software would be required, beyond the base
    Windows NT Server and our Windows NT Cluster software?

    Digital Clusters for Windows NT is only supported on systems that are
    designated as "Server" systems.  The AlphaStation systems do not fall
    into this category, so they are not officially supported.
    
    From a technical point of view, Digital Clusters for Windows NT should
    work on these boxes.  For support, you're on your own.
