Configuring system wide functions / policies / behaviors
Executing C02hptc_cluster_sfs sconfigure
Executing C02ssh_config sconfigure
Executing C03avail sconfigure
Executing C10cluster_fstab sconfigure
Executing C20sysparams sconfigure
NFS daemon tuning:
Given that there are 6 nodes in this cluster, enter the number of
NFS daemons that shall be configured to support them [8] : Enter
The default value for the number of NFS daemons scales according to the number of nodes
in the system. The default value represents the number of NFS daemons required on the
head node to adequately support serving the /hptc_cluster file system. Table 3-8 lists
the default values.
