Setting Up Your Hardware

A cluster running Windows Compute Cluster Server 2003 comprises a single

head node and one or more compute nodes. The head node controls the

access to the cluster. Figure 1-1 gives an example of the topology through

which the head node and the compute nodes are connected in a network.

For more information about network configuration using Compute Cluster

Server 2003, see the Microsoft Support website at support.microsoft.com.

The recommended configurations for the head node and compute nodes are:

• Head node

– Disable hyperthreading in BIOS.

– Disable Pre-boot eXecution Environment (PXE) on both network

interfaces.

– Connect the primary network interface to the cluster switch.

– Connect the secondary network interface to the public or intranet network.

• Compute nodes

– Disable hyperthreading in BIOS.

– Ensure that PXE is enabled on the primary network interface card

(i.e. NIC 1).

– Ensure that the boot order has the primary network interface before

the local hard drive.
