    It is recommended that you install N1 Grid Service Provisioning System onto shared disks. For a discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of installing the software on a local versus a cluster file system, see “Determining the Location of the Application Binaries” in the Sun Cluster Data Services Installation and Configuration Guide. In respect to the fact that the root file system of a failover zone is installed on shared storage, any directory of the root file system is sufficient.
