I just had Chompaq out here a few weeks ago.  Unless you purchase the
"packaged cluster", there is no shared SCSI option.  You're looking at an
MSA1000 setup at the minimum.  Expect to spend around $30K as this is a
small SAN.

I haven't checked the cluster HCL regarding Compaq kit, recently, but I
seem to remember that there was no SCSI clustering support on Compaq kit
on Windows 2000 onwards. So you are looking at FC-AL enclosure as a
basic (used to be something like RA4000?).

I seem to recall there was a cheap cluster-in-a-box solution from
Compaq?
