To configure the first server, complete the following steps:
1. On the Form a Cluster — Step 2 dialog box, enter a name for the cluster and specify the IP
address and netmask for the Management Console IP (also called the Cluster Management
IP). This a virtual IP address (VIF) assigned to the entire cluster for management use. Think of
it as the “IP address of the cluster.” You should connect to this VIF in future GUI management
sessions. The VIF remains highly available.
Also enter the IP addresses and domain for your DNS servers, and the IP addresses for your
NTP servers.
2. The Network Configuration dialog box lists the Ethernet devices included in bond0. The bond0
configuration is complete; select Continue and go to the next step.
NOTE: If required, the configuration of bond0 can be modified at this step by selecting
bond0 in the list of devices and then selecting Configure. This should be necessary only if you
have a non-standard configuration and the slave devices chosen by the installer for bond0
are not correct for your environment.
