Setting up the Environment

  1. On UNIX platforms, you need to use the default ES system directory location, and so in the /var/mfcobol/es/ directory, create three subdirectories entitled RED, GREEN, and BLUE.
  2. Copy any existing data files that you plan to use within the group to each of these subdirectories.
    Note: For this tutorial, you are going to create a new data file; therefore, this step is only required if you plan to use the group beyond the scope of these instructions.
You are now ready to create the enterprise servers that will make up the high availability group.
