Installing Sun Cluster HA for NFS Packages

The scinstall(1M) utility installs SUNWscnfs, the Sun Cluster HA for NFS data service package, on a cluster. You can install specific data service packages from the Sun Cluster data service CD by using interactive scinstall, or you can install all data service packages on the CD by using the -s option to non-interactive scinstall. The preferred method is to use interactive scinstall, as described in the following procedure.

The data service packages might have been installed as part of your initial Sun Cluster installation. If not, use this procedure to install them now.

How to Install Sun Cluster HA for NFS Packages

You need the Sun Cluster data service CD to complete this procedure. Run this procedure on all cluster nodes that can run Sun Cluster HA for NFS.

1. Load the data service CD into the CD-ROM drive.

2. Run scinstall with no options.

   This command starts scinstall in interactive mode.

3. Select the menu option: "Add support for new data service to this cluster node."

   You can then load software for as many data services as exist on the CD.

4. Exit scinstall and unload the CD from the drive.
