Supported Software and Hardware Platforms

The following installation requirements and guidelines are missing or unclear:

• Solaris software requirements for Sun Cluster software apply as well to Quorum Server software.

• The supported hardware platforms for a quorum server are the same as for a cluster node.

• A quorum server does not have to be configured on the same hardware and software platform as the cluster or clusters that it provides quorum to. For example, an x86 based machine that runs the Solaris 9 OS can be configured as a quorum server for a SPARC based cluster that runs the Solaris 10 OS.

• A quorum server can be configured on a cluster node to provide quorum for clusters other than the cluster that the node belongs to. However, a quorum server that is configured on a cluster node is not highly available.
