We are looking to implement 2 node clustering for our IBM Websphere MQ
v5.3 or v6 (if we upgrade) server and we are planning to go with either
Sun Cluster 3.1 or Veritas cluster 4.1 or 5 with Solaris 9 or 10 on
SunFire V480. In regrad to same we are looking for best direct attached
(no SAN, NAS....too tight budget) fiber channel storage product which
will support atleast one FC connections from each server (so min 2 FC
port) and will work in 2 node clustering setup.

Currently we do not have much storage requirement, probbaly 200gb to
start will be more than enough.

Yes, the above configuration is not a full high availability solution.
But due to tight budget we want to have something to start than nothing
for server failover.

Thanks
