Checking the systems for installation

Before beginning the installation of VCS software, you can check the readiness of the systems where you plan to install VCS. The command to start the pre-installation check is:

installvcs -precheck system1 system2 ...

 To check the systems

1. Navigate to the folder containing the installvcs program.

   # cd /cdrom/cluster_server

2. Start the pre-installation check:

   # ./installvcs -precheck north south

   The program proceeds in a non-interactive mode, examining the systems for licenses, depots, disk space, and system-to-system communications.

3. Review the output as the program displays the results of the check and saves the results of the check in a log file.
