Veritas Storage Foundation 5.1 SP1 for Oracle RAC Release Notes (5900-1513, April 2011)

See the Veritas Storage Foundation for Oracle RAC Installation and Configuration
Guide.
The installer can automatically detect and configure LLT links
The installer detects link connection status among all cluster nodes and chooses
the most suitable links for LLT communication. It then can set the priority of the
LLT private heartbeat links based on their media speed. Aggregated and bonded
NICs are supported.
See the Veritas Storage Foundation for Oracle RAC Installation and Configuration
Guide.
The Web-based installer enables you to install, configure, and
uninstall
The Web-based installer has increased parity with the script-based installer. It
now supports the ability to install, configure, and uninstall SF Oracle RAC. Note
that the Web-based installer does not support Oracle configuration.
The installer provides automated, password-less SSH
configuration
When you use the installer, it enables SSH or RSH communication among nodes.
It creates SSH keys and adds them to the authorization files. After a successful
completion, the installer removes the keys and system names from the appropriate
files.
When you use the installer for SSH communications, meet the following
prerequisites:
■ The SSH (or RSH) daemon must be running for auto-detection.
■ You need the superuser passwords for the systems where you plan to install
VCS.
The installer can check product versions
You can use the installer to identify the version (to the MP/RP/SP level depending
on the product) on all platforms. Activate the version checker with ./installer
-version system_name.
Depending on the product, the version checker can identify versions from 3.5
onward.
