Installing VCS RPMs for a manual installation

See "Mounting the product disc"
To prepare for installation
Depending on the OS distribution, replace the dist in the command with rhel5
or sles10. Replace the arch in the command with ppc64.
# cd /mnt/cdrom/dist_arch/cluster_server/rpms
VCS has both required and optional RPMs. Install the required RPMs first. All
RPMs are installed in the /opt directory.
When you select the optional RPMs, review the following information:
Symantec recommends that you install the RPMs for VCS manual pages
(VRTSvcsmn).
The I/O fencing RPM (VRTSvxfen) can be used only with the shared disks that
support SCSI-3 Persistent Reservations (PR). See the Veritas Cluster Server
User's Guide for a conceptual description of I/O fencing. You need to test shared
storage for SCSI-3 PR and to implement I/O fencing.
See "About setting up disk-based I/O fencing"
Use this procedure if you install VCS for the first time. Make sure the system does
not have any of the VCS RPMs already installed. If VCS is already installed, either
remove the RPMs before you perform this procedure or upgrade VCS on the new
node.
Perform the steps to install VCS RPMs on each node in the cluster.
To install VCS RPMs on a node
Install the required VCS RPMs in the order shown. Do not install any RPMs
already installed on the system. Pay special attention to operating system
distribution and architecture.
