Perform these tasks on each node in the cluster.
In a Sun Cluster configuration, user initialization files for the various shells must verify that they are run from an interactive shell before they attempt to output to the terminal. Otherwise, unexpected behavior or interference with data services might occur. See “Customizing a User's Work Environment” in System Administration Guide, Volume 1 (Solaris 8) or “Customizing a User's Work Environment” in System Administration Guide: Basic Administration (Solaris 9) for more information.
Become superuser on a cluster node.
Modify PATH and MANPATH entries in the .cshrc or .profile file.
Set the PATH to include /usr/sbin and /usr/cluster/bin. Also include the following volume-manager-specific paths that apply to your configuration:
Software Product |
PATH |
---|---|
VERITAS Volume Manager (VxVM) |
/etc/vx/bin |
VxVM 3.2 GUI |
/opt/VRTSvmsa/bin |
VxVM 3.5 GUI |
/opt/VRTSob/bin |
VERITAS File System (VxFS) |
/opt/VRTSvxfs/sbin, /usr/lib/fs/vxfs/bin, and /etc/fs/vxfs |
Set the MANPATH to include /usr/cluster/man. Also include the following volume-manager-specific paths that apply to your configuration:
Software Product |
MANPATH |
---|---|
Solstice DiskSuite/Solaris Volume Manager |
/usr/share/man |
VxVM |
/opt/VRTS/man |
VxVM GUI |
/opt/VRTSvmsa/man |
VxFS |
/opt/VRTS/man |
(Optional) For ease of administration, set the same root password on each node, if you have not already done so.
Repeat Step 1 through Step 3 on each remaining cluster node.
Install data-service software packages.
To use the scinstall utility, go to How to Install Data-Service Software Packages (scinstall).
To use the Web Start program to install data services from the Sun Cluster 3.1 10/03 Data Services release, go to How to Install Data-Service Software Packages (Web Start).
