Configuring your Environment for Software RAID
Installing the Extended Distance Cluster Software
Chapter 364
Complete the following procedure to install XDC:
1. Insert the product CD into the drive and mount the CD.
2. Open the command line interface.
3. If you are installing XDC on Red Hat 4, run the following command:
# rpm -Uvh xdc-A.01.00-0.rhel4.noarch.rpm
4. If you are installing XDC on Novell SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9,
run the following command:
# rpm -Uvh xdc-A.01.00-0.sles9.noarch.rpm
5. If you are installing XDC on Novell SUSE Linux Enterprise Server
10, run the following command:
# rpm -Uvh xdc-A.01.00-0.sles10.noarch.rpm
This command initializes the XDC software installation. After you
install XDC, you need to copy the raid.conf.template into each
package directory that you need to enable Software RAID.
6. Run the following command to copy the raid.conf.template file as
raid.conf file into each package directory:
# cp $SGROOT/xdc/raid.conf.template \
$SGCONF/<pkgdir>/raid.conf
The file is copied into the package directory.
NOTE Installing the Extended Distance Cluster software does not enable
Software RAID for every package in your environment. You need to
manually enable Software RAID for a package by copying the files into
the package directories. Also, if you need to enable Software RAID for
more than one package in your environment, you need to copy the files
and templates into each of those package directories. You must edit these
template files later.
Verifying the XDC Installation
After you install XDC, run the following command to ensure that the
software is installed:
#rpm -qa| grep xdc
