2.8. Installing GFS
Installing GFS consists of installing Red Hat GFS RPMs on nodes in a Red Hat cluster. Before installing the RPMs, make sure of the following:
- The cluster nodes meet the system requirements described in this chapter.
- You have noted the key characteristics of your GFS configuration (refer to Section 1.4, “Before Setting Up GFS”).
- The correct Red Hat Cluster Suite software is installed in the cluster.
For information on installing RPMS for Red Hat Cluster Suite and Red Hat GFS, see Configuring and Managing a Red Hat Cluster. If you have already installed the appropriate Red Hat Cluster Suite RPMs, follow the procedures that pertain to installing the Red Hat GFS RPMs.
