Installing the Policy Master
Specifying whether to install Storage Foundation
You can optionally install and configure Storage Foundation to store the VCS
One Policy Master configuration database.
Note: On Solaris, VCS One supports Storage Foundation 5.0MP1 and above. On
Linux, VCS One does not support versions of Storage Foundation before Storage
Foundation 5.0 MP2.
Veritas Storage Foundation by Symantec includes Veritas File System by
Symantec (VxFS) and Veritas Volume Manager by Symantec (VxVM) with
varying feature levels.
Veritas File System is a high performance journaling file system that provides
easy management and quick-recovery for applications. Veritas File System
delivers scalable performance, continuous availability, increased I/O
throughput, and structural integrity.
Veritas Volume Manager removes the physical limitations of disk storage. With
Veritas Volume Manager, you can configure, share, and manage your storage
online. Managing storage online optimizes storage I/O performance without
interrupting data availability. Veritas Volume Manager also provides
easy-to-use, online storage management tools to reduce downtime.
