This section describes system requirements for VCS.

The following information applies to VCS clusters. The information does not apply to SF Oracle RAC installations.

VCS requires that all nodes in the cluster use the same processor architecture and run the same operating system.

For example, in a cluster with nodes running Solaris, all nodes must run Solaris SPARC or Solaris x64.

All nodes in the cluster must run the same VCS version. Each node in the cluster may run a different version of the operating system, as long as the operating system is supported by the VCS version in the cluster.
