How to Set Up the Root Environment
Perform this procedure on each node in the global cluster.
-
Assume the root role on a cluster node.
-
Add /usr/cluster/bin/ and /usr/sbin/ to the
PATH.
Note -
Always make /usr/cluster/bin the first entry in the
PATH. This placement ensures that Oracle Solaris Cluster commands take precedence over any
other binaries that have the same name, thus avoiding unexpected behavior.
See your Oracle Solaris OS documentation, volume manager documentation, and other application
documentation for additional file paths to set.
- (Optional)
For ease of administration, set the same root password on each node, if you have not already
done so.
