Before Creating an Serviceguard NFS
Package
Before creating a Serviceguard NFS package, perform the following
tasks:
NOTE The following procedures assume your environment is RedHat. If your
environment is SLES, replace all occurences of “/usr/local” with
“/opt”.
1. Select the NFS Server package during Red Hat Linux installation
and verify that the NFS is properly installed.
After RedHat installation is complete, check for both the NFS kernel
and NFS utility to verify NFS installation:
• Verify the NFS utility, run the command:
# rpm –qa | grep nfs
If the output contains nfs-utils-<release_version> , the
utility is installed.
• Verify NFS kernel, do the following: (the following steps are for
Linux run-level 5)
— Go into your kernel source directory.
For example, if your kernel source directory is
/usr/src/linux-<version>-<release>, use the following
command to change directory
# cd /usr/src/linux-<version>-<release>
— Run the xconfig command.
This displays a kernel configuration window.
— From the configuration window, click the File Systems
button.
A File System configuration window is displayed
