Oracle^® MiniCluster S7-2 Installation Guide

Set Up MiniCluster

1. Log in to the Install Administrator account with the new password.

   • User name — mcinstall

   • Password — The password for the mcinstall user that you set in Finish Setting Up the Install Administrator Account.

2. Click Login.

   The Welcome to MiniCluster Configuration Utility page appears.

   
   
3. Click on the Next button at the bottom of the page.

   The System Setup page appears.

   
   
4. Verify that you have downloaded and installed the MiniCluster component bundle onto both compute nodes.

   Certain steps in the remaining initial configuration process will fail if you have not installed the MiniCluster component bundle on both compute nodes. See Transfer and Install the MiniCluster Component Bundle for more information.

5. Locate the first step that needs to be run and click the Run button, or click the Run All Steps button.

   As part of the process in Perform Initial Configuration, you went through Steps 1 to 10 using the installmc tool. So those steps should be shown as Finished in the Status column.

   Complete the remaining steps in this System Setup page, either by clicking the Run button for each step, or by clicking the Run All Steps button. Clicking the Run All Steps button will begin the process after the last completed step (in this case, after Step 10). It normally takes about 3 to 4 hours to run all of the remaining steps in this page. Click Hide Detail to provide less detail or Show Detail to provide more detail for all of the steps that are run on this screen.

   This table lists the remaining steps from the System Setup page and what happens in each step. For each step, the following actions are valid:

   • Run — Runs this particular step.

   • Cancel — If this step is running, you can cancel the process by clicking this button.
