Recommendations for Sun NAS Devices

It is strongly recommended that you use a Sun StorageTek^TM 5320 NAS Cluster Appliance. Clustered filers provide high availability with respect to the filer data and do not constitute a single point of failure in the cluster.

It is strongly recommended that you use the network time protocol (NTP) to synchronize time on the cluster nodes and the Sun NAS device. Refer to your Sun documentation for instructions about how to configure NTP on the Sun NAS device. Select at least one NTP server for the Sun NAS device that also serves the cluster nodes.
