Prepare Each Node in the Cluster

On each node in the cluster, perform these steps:

1. Create the Calendar Server runtime user and group under which Calendar Server will run as follows:

   1. Add icsgroup (or the value you selected) to the /etc/group file.

   2. Add icsuser (or the value you selected) to the /etc/passwd file.

   ---

   Tip –

   The default names are icsuser and icsgroup. You can use other names if you prefer, but the uid and gid numbers must be the same on all nodes in the cluster. The user name should not be root.

   You must provide the user and group names when you Run Postinstallation Configuration Programs.

2. Add or set the following fields in the /etc/vfstab file:

   • mountpoint to /global/cal/ (Or, the file system mount point you selected in Selecting the Calendar Server Installation Directory.)

     • mount at boot option to no

     • mount options to logging for FFS or global,logging for GFS
