Cluster Interconnect Guidelines

• It is strongly recommended to use well-known static IP addresses for the cluster

interconnect, such as 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.2.1 for one node, and 192.168.1.2 and
192.168.2.2 for the other.

• Ensure that the IP addresses are correct for HA connectivity.

• Ensure that two NIC ports have been configured, one for each HA node.
