This command initializes and completes the XDC software
installation.
NOTE Installing the Extended Distance Cluster software does not enable
Software RAID for every package in your environment. You need to
manually enable Software RAID for a package by copying the files into
the package directories. Also, if you need to enable Software RAID for
more than one package in your environment, you need to copy the files
and templates into each of those package directories. You must edit these
template files later.
Creating a Legacy Package
After you install XDC, you must copy certain files to specific locations to
enable Software RAID for that package.
Complete the following procedure to create a legacy package:
1. After you install XDC, copy the raid.conf.template into a each
package directory that you need to enable Software RAID.
2. Run the following command to copy the raid.conf.template file as
raid.conf file into each package directory:
# cp $SGROOT/xdc/raid.conf.template \
$SGCONF/<pkgdir>/raid.conf
The file is copied into the package directory.
