Installing and configuring the product

Prerequisites

Veritas Enterprise Administrator

The Veritas Enterprise Administrator (VEA) client can be installed and run on
any machine that supports the Java Runtime Environment.
VEA is required to access the graphical user interface (GUI) for Veritas Storage
Foundation. You can use the GUI to administer disks, volumes, file systems, and
database functionality on local or remote machines.
One of the following packages needs to be installed and running on the client:

Veritas Enterprise Administrator (

)

This is the client package for HP-UX.

windows/VRTSobgui.msi

)

This is the client package for Windows.

Check the Veritas Storage Foundation Release Notes for any patch information
before you install VEA.

Alternatively, remove the file

.

Provide the following information when installing the SFCFS:

The cluster name, beginning with a letter (a-z, A-Z).
