Installing VCS with a response file where ssh or rsh are disabled

In secure enterprise environments, ssh or rsh communication is not allowed between systems. In such cases, the installvcs program can install and configure VCS only on systems with which it can communicate—most often the local system only. When installation is complete, VCS creates a response file.

See “Response file variable definitions” on page 166.

The response file that the installvcs program generates contains descriptions and explanations of the variables and their values. You copy this file to the other systems in the cluster, and edit it to reflect the current local system. You can use the installation program with the -responsefileoption to install and configure VCS identically on each system without being prompted.

To use installvcs in a secure environment

1On one node in the cluster, start VCS installation using the installvcs program. See “Starting the software installation” on page 61.

2Review the output as the installer performs the initial system checks. The installer detects the inability to communicate between systems.

3Press the Enter key to install VCS on one system and create a response file with which you can install on other systems.

The installvcs program installs and configures VCS on systems where communication is possible.
