Verifying the SF Oracle RAC configuration

After installing SF Oracle RAC and configuring VCS, CVM, and CFS, verify the installation using the gabconfig -a command.

The output of the gabconfig -a command displays the nodes that have membership with the modules installed and configured. The first line indicates that each node (0, 1, 2, and 3) has membership with the GAB utility that uses "Port a." GAB port description lists the different ports that the software configures for different functions.
