How to Install Cluster Transport Adapters

1. Shut down the node in which you will install the cluster transport adapter.

   # scswitch -S -h nodename # shutdown -y -g 0

   For the procedure on shutting down a node, see Sun Cluster 3.0 System Administration Guide.

2. Power off the node.

   For the procedure on powering off a node, see the documentation that shipped with your node.

3. Install the cluster transport adapter.

   This procedure is the same procedure in a non-cluster environment. For the procedure on installing host adapters, see the documentation that shipped with your network adapter and node.

4. Power on and boot the node.

   For the procedures on powering on and booting a node, see Sun Cluster 3.0 System Administration Guide.
