Remote Shell for Cluster Functionality

To enable the use of clustering functionality in the Oracle environment, systems that are part of a cluster must be able to communicate remotely with each other through a remote shell (rsh command). To enable remote functionality, create the rhosts file in the home directory of the oracle account and add the line + oracle to it.
