Local Disks

Each Sun Cluster server has one or more disks that are accessible only from that server. These are called local disks. They contain the Sun Cluster software environment and the Solaris operating environment.

Figure 1-7 shows a two-node configuration including the local disks.

Local disks can be mirrored, but mirroring is not required. Refer to Chapter 2, Planning the Configuration, for a detailed discussion about mirroring the local disks.
