8. Reboot the Management Server host.
Two NFS shares called /export/primary and /export/secondary are now set up.
9. It is recommended that you test to be sure the previous steps have been successful.
a. Log in to the hypervisor host.
b. Be sure NFS and rpcbind are running. The commands might be different depending on your
OS. For example:
# service rpcbind start
# service nfs start
# chkconfig nfs on
# chkconfig rpcbind on
# reboot
c. Log back in to the hypervisor host and try to mount the /export directories. For example
(substitute your own management server name):
# mkdir /primarymount
# mount -t nfs <management-server-name>:/export/primary /primarymount
# umount /primarymount
# mkdir /secondarymount
# mount -t nfs <management-server-name>:/export/secondary /secondarymount
# umount /secondarymount
10. If you are setting up multiple Management Server nodes, continue with Section 5.4.8, “Prepare
and Start Additional Management Servers”. If you are setting up a single-node deployment,
continue with Section 5.4.10, “Prepare the System VM Template”.
