To configure VCS the following information is required:

A unique Cluster name

A unique Cluster ID number between 0-65535

Two or more NIC cards per system used for heartbeat links

One or more heartbeat links are configured as private links

One heartbeat link may be configured as a low priority link

All systems are being configured to create one cluster

Enter the unique cluster name: [?] vcs_cluster2

Enter the unique Cluster ID number between 0-65535: [b,?] 7

Discovering NICs on north ...discovered eth0 eth1 eth2 eth3

Enter the NIC for the first private heartbeat NIC on north:

[b,?] eth1

Would you like to configure a second private heartbeat link?

[y,n,q,b,?] (y)

Enter the NIC for the second private heartbeat NIC on north:

[b,?] eth2

Would you like to configure a third private heartbeat link?

[y,n,q,b,?](n)

Do you want to configure an additional low priority heartbeat 
link? [y,n,q,b,?] (n)
 
 


Are you using the same NICs for private heartbeat links on all 
systems? [y,n,q,b,?] (y)
