4.5 Using a YaST Auto-Configuration File to
Install and Configure Business Continuity
Clustering Software
You can install Business Continuity Clustering for Linux core software and Identity Manager
management utilities without taking the Business Continuity Clustering software CD or ISO file to
different nodes in your cluster. To do this, you must perform the following tasks:
Section 4.5.1, "Creating a YaST Auto-Configuration Profile," on page 53
Section 4.5.2, "Setting Up an NFS Server to Host the Business Continuity Clustering
Installation Media," on page 54
Section 4.5.3, "Installing and Configuring Business Continuity Clustering on Each Cluster
Node," on page 54
Section 4.5.4, "Removing the NFS Share from Your Server," on page 55
Section 4.5.5, "Cleaning Up the Business Continuity Clustering Installation Source," on
page 55

4.5.1 Creating a YaST Auto-Configuration Profile

1 In a text editor, create a YaST auto-configuration profile XML file named
Auto-configuration files are typically stored in the
directory, but you can use any directory.
The file should appear similar to the example below.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE profile SYSTEM "/usr/share/autoinstall/dtd/profile.dtd">
<profile xmlns="http://www.suse.com/1.0/yast2ns" xmlns:config="http://
www.suse.com/1.0/configns">
<configure>
<bcc>
<config-type>New</config-type>
<start-now>Yes</start-now>
<cluster-dn>cn=my_cluster.o=novell</cluster-dn>
<ldap-server>10.1.1.0</ldap-server>
<ldap-port>389</ldap-port>
<ldap-secure-port>636</ldap-secure-port>
<admin-dn>cn=admin.o=novell</admin-dn>
<admin-password>password</admin-password>
</bcc>
</configure>
</profile>
Edit the above example to apply to your own specific system settings.
2 Copy the XML file you created in
Use the same path on each node. You can use the
the man page for information on using
scp
/var/lib/autoinstall/repository/
