Veritas Storage Foundation 5.1 SP1 Cluster File System Installation Guide (5900-1510, April 2011)

Install and configure VCS to create a single-node VCS cluster.

Meet the following requirements for CP server:

■ During installation, make sure to select all depots for installation. The VRTScps depot

is installed only if you select to install all depots.

■ During configuration, make sure to configure LLT and GAB.

■ During configuration, set up the cluster in secure mode if you want secure

communication between the CP server and the SFCFS cluster (application cluster).

See the Veritas Cluster Server Installation Guide for instructions on installing and

configuring VCS.

Proceed to configure the CP server.

See “ Configuring the CP server using the configuration utility” on page 100.

See “Configuring the CP server manually” on page 108.

CP server setup uses a

single system

Install and configure SFHA to create an SFHA cluster. This makes the CP server highly

available.

Meet the following requirements for CP server:

■ During installation, make sure to select all depots for installation. The VRTScps depot

is installed only if you select to install all depots.

■ During configuration, set up the cluster in secure mode if you want secure

communication between the CP server and the SFCFS cluster (application cluster).

See “Preparing to configure the clusters in secure mode” on page 73.

■ During configuration, configure disk-based fencing (scsi3 mode).

See the Veritas Storage Foundation and High Availability Installation Guide for instructions

on installing and configuring SFHA.

Proceed to set up shared storage for the CP server database.

Configuring the CP server cluster in secure mode

You must configure security on the CP server only if you want to secure the

communication between the CP server and the SFCFS cluster (CP client).

This step secures the HAD communication on the CP server cluster, and makes

the authentication broker highly available.

Note: If you already configured Symantec Product Authentication Service (AT)

during VCS configuration, you can skip this section.
