cluster

Voltaire InfiniBand interconnect solutions for igh-speed, low-latency networking capabilities will be integrated into HP high-performance configure-to-order Linux cluster configurations.

Monday 9:30AM I had just gotten out of a short meeting and went to my desk to see what important e-mail messages I might had missed. In my inbox was a series of messages sent from ELM Enterprise Manager 3.0, the software we use to monitor our SQL Server event logs. The message had arrived about 30 minutes earlier, when I was away from my desk.

Every time I have to perform some major work on my production SQL Server clusters, I spend a lot of time researching and planning the task at hand. And when it comes to something as big as an upgrade from a SQL Server 7.0 Cluster to a SQL Server 2000 cluster, I even spend more time than usual. I can't afford for mistakes on a server that needs to be up 24/7.
