The configuration consists of multiported arrays connected
to multiple computers as shown in
Figure 1-1 "Cluster/iX",
where each port has access to the drives on the other
port. Any single computer in this topology has direct access to
the cluster volume set but all the computers in the topology agree
on a single owner. All access to the data goes through the computer
that owns the volume set.
In the event that the owner computer encounters a failure,
another computer in the cluster topology can take over ownership
of the cluster volume set. The system volume set can not be configured
as a cluster volume set.
