The example installation demonstrates how to install VCS on two systems: galaxy
and nebula. The example installation chooses to install all VCS RPMs and
configures all optional features. For this example, the cluster’s name is vcs_cluster2
and the cluster’s ID is 7.
Figure 4-1 illustrates the systems on which you would install and run VCS.
