ration Tool, refer to Chapter 3 Installing and Configuring Red Hat Cluster Suite Software.

Cluster button is not displayed, you can still use the Cluster Configuration Tool;

ration file. For information about using the Cluster Configuration Tool for a new
cluster configuration, refer to Chapter 3 Installing and Configuring Red Hat Cluster
Suite Software.
