Chapter 1
Clustering Overview
For many years, companies have depended on clustered computer systems to
fulfill two key requirements: to ensure employees can access and process
information that is critical to the ongoing operation of their business, and to
increase the performance and throughput of their computer systems at minimal
cost. These requirements are known as availability and scalability, respectively.
Historically, these requirements have been fulfilled with clustered systems built
on proprietary technology. Over the years, open systems have progressively and
aggressively moved proprietary technologies into industry-standard products.
Clustering is no exception. Its primary features, availability and scalability,
have been moving into client/server products for the last few years.
The absorption of clustering technologies into open systems products is
creating less-expensive, non-proprietary solutions that deliver levels of
functionality commonly found in traditional clusters. While some uses of the
proprietary solutions will always exist--such as those controlling stock
exchange trading floors and aerospace mission controls--many critical
applications can reach the desired levels of availability and scalability with
client/server-based clustering.
These new clustering solutions use industry-standard hardware and software,
thereby providing key clustering features at a lower price than proprietary
clustering systems. Before examining the features and benefits of the Compaq
Parallel Database Cluster, it is helpful to understand the concepts and
terminology of clustered systems.

1-2 Clustering Overview
Clusters Defined
A cluster is an integration of software and hardware technologies that enables a
set of loosely coupled servers and storage to present a single system image to
clients and to operate as a single system. As a cluster, the group of servers and
storage offers a level of availability and scalability far exceeding that obtained
if each cluster node operated as a standalone server. This translates into
increased performance and data availability.

Availability
When computer systems experience outages, the amount of time the system is
unavailable is referred to as downtime. Downtime has several primary causes:
hardware faults, software faults, planned service, operator error, and
environmental factors. Minimizing the effects of the causes of downtime is a
primary goal of a cluster.
Simply defined, availability is the measure of how well a computer system can
deliver services to clients continuously.

1-3
Availability is a system-wide endeavor. The hardware, the operating system,
and the applications must be designed for availability. Clustering requires
stability in these components, then couples them in such a way that failure of
one item does not render the system unusable. By using redundant components
and mechanisms that detect and recover from faults, clusters can greatly
increase the availability of applications critical to business operations.
Scalability
Simply defined, scalability is a computer system characteristic that enables
improved performance or throughput when supplementary hardware resources
are added. Scalable systems increase the systems' power and throughput by
adding components to an existing system without the expense of adding a new
system.
In a stand-alone server configuration, scalability is usually obtained by adding
processors or more memory. In a cluster configuration, scalability is usually
obtained by adding cluster nodes.
Not only must the hardware benefit from additional components, but also
software must be constructed in such a way as to take advantage of the
additional processing power. The Compaq Parallel Database Cluster uses
Oracle8 Parallel Server, which is a parallel database that can distribute its
workload among the cluster nodes. As more nodes are brought into the cluster,
cluster-aware applications can use the parallel features of Oracle8 Parallel
Server to distribute workload among more servers, thereby obtaining greater
performance and/or throughput.

1-4 Clustering Overview
Compaq Parallel Database Cluster
As traditional clustering technology has moved into the open systems of
client/server computing, Compaq has provided innovative, customer-focused
solutions. The Compaq Parallel Database Cluster moves client/server
computing one step closer to offering comparable functionality found in
expensive, proprietary cluster solutions, at a fraction of the cost.
The Compaq Parallel Database Cluster combines the popular Microsoft
Windows NT Server operating system and the industry-leading Oracle8 Parallel
Server with award winning Compaq ProLiant Servers and storage systems.
Together, these hardware and software components provide improved
performance through a truly scalable parallel application and improved
availability using clustering software that rapidly recovers from detectable
faults.

High Availability Features of ProLiant Servers
In addition to the increased application and data availability enabled by
clustering, ProLiant servers include many reliability features that provide a
solid foundation for effective clustered server solutions. The Compaq Parallel
Database Cluster is based on ProLiant servers, most of which offer excellent
reliability through redundant power supplies, redundant cooling fans, and Error
Checking and Correcting (ECC) memory. The high-availability features of
ProLiant servers are a critical foundation of Compaq clustering products. The
following table lists all the high availability features found in many ProLiant
servers.

Clustering Shared Storage
The Compaq Parallel Database Cluster is based on a cluster architecture known
as Shared Storage Clustering, in which clustered servers share access to a
common set of hard drives. The Compaq Parallel Database Cluster requires all
clustered (shared) data to be stored in an external storage system.

was chosen for the Compaq Parallel Database Cluster because it brings
significant advantages to clustering, including:
Throughput of up to 100 MB/sec
s
Server-to-storage distances of up to 1000 meters
s
Increased connectivity and ease of use
s
Hot-pluggable drives
s
Hot-pluggable fan assembly
s
Hot-pluggable power supply (in redundant power supply configurations)
s
Manageability through Compaq Insight Manager
s
Throughout this guide, you will see references to the Compaq Fibre Channel
Storage System. When this term is used, it refers to all components that make
up the storage system itself. The three primary components of the Compaq
Fibre Channel Storage System are:
Fibre Channel Array
s
Fibre Channel Storage Hub (either 7-port or 12-port)
s
Fibre Channel Array Controller
s
A fourth component of Compaq Fibre Channel technology is the Fibre Channel
Host Controller, an adapter card that resides in a server. While the Fibre
Channel Host Controller is not part of the term "Fibre Channel Storage
System," it plays a key role in getting data to and from the server(s).
Each of these components is discussed below. For detailed information, refer to
the Compaq Fibre Channel Storage System User Guide and the Compaq Fibre
Channel Host Controller Installation Guide.

Availability Features of Shared Storage
An important part of a high-availability system is the ability to improve data
availability, traditionally accomplished by implementing RAID technology.
Hardware RAID is an important part of the Compaq Fibre Channel Storage
System that is used for shared storage in the Compaq Parallel Database Cluster.
RAID is implemented on the Fibre Channel Array Controller, which is located
in the Fibre Channel Array. The Fibre Channel Array also allows redundant,
hot-pluggable power supplies and a hot-pluggable fan module.
The Fibre Channel Array Controller supports RAID levels 0, 1, 4, and 5. It
supports pre-failure notification on hard drives and provides a Fibre Array
Accelerator made with ECC memory. The Array Accelerator is backed with
onboard rechargeable batteries, ensuring that the data temporarily held (cached)
is safe even with equipment failure or power outage. For a complete list of
features and accompanying descriptions, refer to the Compaq Fibre Channel
Storage System User Guide.
By using standard short-wave Fibre Channel, the Fibre Channel Storage System
can be placed up to 500 meters from the Fibre Channel Storage Hub, and the
Fibre Channel Storage Hub can be placed up to 500 meters from the cluster
nodes (see Figure 2-2).

2-6 Architecture of the Compaq Parallel Database Cluster
Compaq Fibre Channel Storage System
Compaq Fibre Channel Array
The Fibre Channel Array is the storage cabinet that primarily contains the disk
drives, power supply, and Fibre Channel Array Controller. The Fibre Channel
Array can hold twelve (12) 1-inch or eight (8) 1.6-inch Wide-Ultra SCSI drives.
The Compaq Fibre Channel Array comes in either a rack-mountable or a tower
model.
Each Compaq Parallel Database Cluster must have at least one Fibre Channel
Array set up as external shared storage. The maximum number of Fibre
Channel Arrays available in a Compaq Parallel Database Cluster depends on
which Fibre Channel Hub is used and how many nodes are in the cluster. For
example, with a 12-port hub in a four-node cluster configuration, a maximum
of eight storage arrays could be used. With the 1-inch high, 9-GB drives, this
means a maximum storage capacity is approximately 864 GB (12 drives x 9 GB
x 8 arrays). With the 1.6-inch high, 18-GB drives, this means a maximum
storage capacity is approximately 1152 GB (8 drives x 18 GB 28 arrays).

Compaq Fibre Channel Storage Hub
A Fibre Channel Storage Hub is required to create a data path from one or more
Fibre Channel Arrays to one or more Compaq servers. The Compaq Parallel
Database Cluster requires at least one Fibre Channel Storage Hub.
The Fibre Channel Storage Hub comes in two sizes: 7-port and 12-port. Both
are supported by the Compaq Parallel Database Cluster.
Each node in the cluster uses one port on the hub, as does each Fibre Channel
Array. For example, in a three-node cluster using two Fibre Channel Arrays,
three ports on the Fibre Channel Storage Hub are used by the cluster nodes and
two are used by the storage arrays. The remaining unused ports can be used for
future expansion of cluster nodes or storage arrays.

Fibre Channel Array Controller
A single Fibre Channel Array Controller, which resides in the Fibre Channel
Array, is included with your Fibre Channel Storage System. This controller
provides RAID and caching capabilities to the Fibre Channel Storage System.
The cable connection from the Fibre Channel Storage Hub is made to this
controller.
Fibre Channel Host Controller
The controller adapters are the interface between the server and the Fibre
Channel Storage System. Each node requires a PCI Fibre Channel Host
Controller to be able to interface with the shared Fibre Channel Storage Hub. A
cable runs from each controller to a port in the Fibre Channel Storage Hub.

NOTE: While the Compaq Parallel Database Cluster supports multiple Fibre
Channel Arrays as part of the shared storage system, the initial release of the
product supports only a single fibre channel loop. Physically, this means that in
each cluster node only one Fibre Channel Host Controller can be connected to
shared storage.

Fibre Channel Data Paths
The Fibre Channel Storage System provides shared storage for the Compaq
Parallel Database Cluster. As stated previously, the storage system consists of a
host controller in each server, a fibre channel hub, a storage array controller,
and a storage array containing SCSI disks.
The Fibre Channel Storage System has two distinct data paths, separated by the
Fibre Channel Storage Hub:
The first data path runs from the Fibre Channel Host Controller in the
s
servers to the Fibre Channel Storage Hub.
The second data path runs from the Fibre Channel Storage Hub to the
s
Fibre Channel Array.

Figure 2-6. Fibre Host Controller to Fibre Channel Storage Hub data path
If one of these connections experience a fault, the connections from the other
servers ensures continued access to the database. The failed connection results
in the eviction of the cluster node that contains the host controller. All network
clients accessing the database through that node must reconnect through
another cluster node. The effect of this failure relatively minor. It affects only
those users who are connected to the database through the affected node. The
duration of downtime is approximately the time to detect the failure plus the
time for the network clients to reconnect to the database through another node.
Note that Compaq Insight Manager monitors the health of the Fibre Channel
Storage System. If any part of the Fibre Channel data path disrupts a server's
access to the storage array, the Fibre Array Controller status changes to
"Failed" and the condition is red. The red condition bubbles up to higher level
Insight Manager screens, and eventually to the device list.

If this one connection experiences a fault, the database cannot be accessed from
any nodes. Because the nodes do not have access to shared storage, users
cannot reach the database. The data however, is unharmed, and remains safely
stored on the physical disks inside the Fibre Channel Array.
As with the Server-to-Fibre Channel Storage Hub data path, Compaq Insight
Manager detects this fault, changes the Fibre Channel Array status to "Failed,"
and changes its condition to red.

2-12 Architecture of the Compaq Parallel Database Cluster
SCSI Disks
The Fibre Channel Array uses standard Wide-Ultra SCSI disks, ensuring
investment protection for existing SCSI users. The Fibre Channel Array can
hold as many as twelve (12) 1-inch or eight (8) 1.6-inch Wide-Ultra SCSI
drives. Due to the variety of drive sizes and storage capacities, the choice of
SCSI drives to use in the external Fibre Channel Array is left to the system
administrator. In a Shared Disk Clustering scheme, the SCSI drives must be
100% compatible with the clustering software. Compaq has worked diligently
to ensure Compaq SCSI drives meet the stringent needs of clustering. It is
recommended you use only Compaq SCSI drives.
Cluster Interconnect
The cluster interconnect is a data path over which nodes of a cluster
communicate. This type of communication is termed intra-cluster
communication. At a minimum, the interconnect consists of two network
adapters (one in each server), a network switch, and cables joining each adapter
to the switch. The cluster nodes use the interconnect data path to:
Communicate individual resource and overall cluster status
s
Send and receive heartbeat signals
s
Coordinate database locks through the Oracle Integrated Distributed
s
Lock Manager
IMPORTANT: The cluster management software in the Compaq Parallel
Database Cluster requires the use of TCP/IP. When configuring the cluster
interconnect, be sure to enable TCP/IP.
NOTE: Several terms for cluster interconnect are used throughout the
industry. Others are: private LAN, private interconnect, system area network
(SAN), and private network. Throughout this document the term cluster
interconnect is be used.

Interconnect Adapters
Each of the supported servers come equipped with Compaq Ethernet adapters
capable of 100 Mbit/sec transfer rates. Though some adapters may be capable
of 10 Mbit/sec and 100 Mbit/sec, it is required that the interconnect run at 100
Mbit/sec.
The ProLiant 1850R is equipped with a single port Netelligent 10/100 TX
embedded UTP controller. It is recommended this controller be used for the
client LAN and a second Compaq Ethernet controller be used for the
interconnect.
The ProLiant 6500 is equipped with a dual port Netelligent Dual 100 TX PCI
UTP Controller. It is recommended that one of the ports be used for the
interconnect and the other port for the client LAN.
The Compaq ProLiant 6500 with Intel Pentium II Xeon processor is equipped
with a NC3122 PCI Dual 10/100. It is recommended that one of the ports be
used for the interconnect and the other port for the client LAN.
The adapters must have passed Windows NT Server 4.0 HCT certification.
Connecting the Adapters
The Compaq Parallel Database Cluster requires the use of a 100 Mbit/sec
Ethernet switch for the interconnect path. The 100 Mbit/sec Ethernet switch
handles higher network loads, which is essential to the uninterrupted operation
of the Compaq Parallel Database Cluster. An Ethernet hub is not supported.
NOTE: Although a two-node configuration can conceivably use an Ethernet
crossover cable to directly connect the nodes' interconnect adapters, it is not
supported in the Compaq Parallel Database Cluster.

Local Area Network
Every client/server application requires a local area network, or LAN, over
which client machines and servers communicate. In the case of a cluster, the
hardware components of the client LAN are no different than in a standalone
server configuration.
The software components used by network clients should have the ability to
detect node failures and automatically reconnect the client to another cluster
node. For example, Net8, Oracle Call Interface (OCI) and Transaction Process
Monitors can be used to address this issue.
For complete information on how to ensure client auto-reconnect in an Oracle8
Parallel Server environment, refer to the Oracle white paper, "Oracle Parallel
Server on Windows NT Clusters: Implementing Client Failover."
