Chapter 1Getting StartedThe Foundation Services run on a cluster of nodes that are interconnected by a network. This book describes how to use the nhinstall tool to install and configure the Solaris operating system and the Foundation Services on the nodes of the cluster. To evaluate the Foundation Services product, install the software on a small cluster of two master-eligible nodes and a diskless node. For more information on these types of nodes and definitions of other terms used in this document, see the Netra High Availability Suite Foundation Services 2.1 6/03 Glossary. To get started, see the following sections: Overview of Tasks (Task Map)The following table summarizes the tasks for installing and checking a Foundation Services cluster. Perform the tasks in sequential order.
