Prerequisite Configuration Tasks

Before you begin administering the Geographic Edition software, you must identify the Oracle Solaris Cluster installations you need to host protection groups. Then, you need to adjust the Oracle Solaris Cluster configuration and environment to support the formation of partnerships and protection groups with the Geographic Edition software. The following table describes these prerequisite tasks.

Task
Description
1. Set the cluster name to the name you want to use with the Geographic Edition software.
Use the cluster command. For more information about this requirement, see How to Enable Geographic Edition Software.
2. Set up the IP address and host maps for the cluster that is enabled to run Geographic Edition software.
3. Install and configure your data replication product.

Note -  This step is required before you can create protection groups with the geopg create command.

See the Geographic Edition data replication guide for the product you are using. A list of available manuals is provided in Protection Groups.
4. Port and configure application configuration and corresponding resource groups on clusters that are candidates for partnership.
