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

5After the installation is complete, review the installer report.

The installer stores the installvcs-universaluniqueidentifierresponse file in the /opt/VRTS/install/logs/installvcs-universaluniqueidentifier/.response directory where universaluniqueidentifier is a variable to uniquely identify the file.

6If you start VCS before VCS is installed and started on all nodes in the cluster, you see the output similar to:

VCS:11306:Did not receive cluster membership, manual intervention may be needed for seeding

7Use a method of your choice (for example, by using NFS, ftp, or a floppy disk). Copy the response file in a directory such as /tmp on the system where you want to install VCS.

8Edit the response file.

For the variables in the example, change the name of the system to reflect the current local system:

.

$CFG{SYSTEMS} = ["east"];

.

.

$CFG{KEYS}{east} = ["XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXX"];

.

For demo or site licenses, the license key need not be changed.

9On the next system, perform the following:

Mount the product disc.

See “Mounting the product disc” on page 49.

Start the software installation using the installvcs -responsefile option.

# ./installvcs -responsefile /tmp/installvcs-uui.response

Where uui is the Universal Unique Identifier that the installer automatically assigned to the response file.

See “Starting the software installation” on page 61.

10Repeat step 7 through step 9 until VCS has been installed on all nodes in the cluster.
