Generate ssh public keys

# su - grid
$ ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 2048
Generating public/private rsa key pair.
Enter file in which to save the key (/export/home/grid/.ssh/id_rsa): <Enter>
Created directory '/export/home/grid/.ssh'.
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase): <Enter>
Enter same passphrase again: <Enter>
Your identification has been saved in /export/home/grid/.ssh/id_rsa.
Your public key has been saved in /export/home/grid/.ssh/id_rsa.pub.
The key fingerprint is:
..:..:.. grid@grid01
$ cat .ssh/id_rsa.pub > .ssh/authorized_keys
$ chmod 600 .ssh/authorized_keys
$ vi .ssh/authorized_keys

Add the public key of other nodes.

After that do this on all other nodes added as grid:

$ scp grid01:.ssh/authorized_keys .ssh/authorized_keys

Single Disk

All FC disks

For x86 you have to call format -> fdisk -> y for all disks first :-\

DON'T DO THE NEXT STEP IF YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU DO!

Setup private cluster interconnects

Example with a small net with six (eight with net and broadcast) usable IPs. This limits the maximum number of nodes to six... which is obvious...

First node:

# ipadm create-ip net1
# ipadm create-addr -T static -a 10.65.0.1/29 net1/ci1
# ipadm create-ip net5
# ipadm create-addr -T static -a 10.65.0.9/29 net5/ci2

Second node:

# ipadm create-ip net1
# ipadm create-addr -T static -a 10.65.0.2/29 net1/ci1
# ipadm create-ip net5
# ipadm create-addr -T static -a 10.65.0.10/29 net5/ci2

Set slew always for ntp

After configuring ntp set slew always to avoid time warps!

# svccfg -s svc:/network/ntp:default setprop config/slew_always = true
# svcadm refresh svc:/network/ntp:default
# svccfg -s svc:/network/ntp:default listprop config/slew_always
config/slew_always boolean    true
