Choosing the configuration task

The configuration program provides you menu options from which you can choose the configuration task. The menu options that are marked **INSTRUCTIONS ONLY** require you to:

• Follow the instructions in the order mentioned
• Keep the shells on all systems open with superuser privileges

 To choose the configuration task

1. After the program verifies the license keys for SF Oracle RAC, review the program options.
2. Make sure that the systems are ready for configuration. Select Check systems for SFRAC to perform LLT and I/O fencing checks.

   See Performing basic system checks

3. After performing the system checks, select Configure SFRAC and proceed to setting up the stack.
4. Select Configure VCS, CVM, and CFS to configure the SF Oracle RAC components.
