Configuring SFCFSHA using response files

Typically, you can use the response file that the installer generates after you perform SFCFSHA configuration on one cluster to configure SFCFSHA on other clusters. You can also create a response file using the -makeresponsefile option of the installer.

To configure SFCFSHA using response files

  1. Make sure the SFCFSHA packages are installed on the systems where you want to configure SFCFSHA.
  2. Copy the response file to one of the cluster systems where you want to configure SFCFSHA.
  3. Edit the values of the response file variables as necessary.

    To configure optional features, you must define appropriate values for all the response file variables that are related to the optional feature.

    See Response file variables to configure Veritas Storage Foundation Cluster File System High Availability.

  4. Start the configuration from the system to which you copied the response file. For example:

    # /opt/VRTS/install/installsfcfsha -responsefile /tmp/response_file

    Where /tmp/response_file is the response file's full path name.
