Consider the following before configuring a cluster using VCS Cluster Configuration wizard

• The VCS Cluster Configuration wizard allows you to configure a VCS cluster and add a node to the cluster.

  See Configuring a cluster by using the VCS cluster configuration wizard.

• Veritas recommends that you first configure application monitoring using the wizard before using VCS commands to add additional components or modify the existing configuration. Apart from configuring application availability, the wizard also sets up the other components required for successful application monitoring.

• In VMware environment, you must not suspend a system if an application is currently online on that machine. If you suspend a system, VCS moves the disks along with the application to another system. Later, when you try to restore the suspended system, VMware does not allow the operation because the disks that were attached before the system was suspended are no longer with the system.
