Installation and Configuration 5-23 If you are using an Ethernet cluster interconnect, a cluster interconnect name and IP address were assigned to each cluster node. Ping the Ethernet cluster interconnect name of every node in the cluster. When using the client LAN name with the ping command, the IP address displayed by the ping utility should be the client LAN IP address. When using an Ethernet cluster interconnect name, the IP address displayed by the ping utility should be an Ethernet cluster interconnect address. If the ping utility does not return the expected IP addresses, check the entries in the hosts and lmhosts files at %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc. For example, the command ping node1 should return the following type of information.

Installation and Configuration
5-23
If you are using an Ethernet cluster interconnect, a cluster interconnect name
and IP address were assigned to each cluster node. Ping the Ethernet cluster
interconnect name of every node in the cluster.
When using the client LAN name with the ping command, the IP address
displayed by the ping utility should be the client LAN IP address. When using
an Ethernet cluster interconnect name, the IP address displayed by the ping
utility should be an Ethernet cluster interconnect address. If the ping utility
does not return the expected IP addresses, check the entries in the hosts and
lmhosts files at %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc.
For example, the command
ping node1
should return the following type of
information.

Mounting Remote Drives and Verifying
Administrator Privileges
Because the OUI installs and configures OSDs on the other nodes in the
cluster from the installing machine, you must first mount a drive on all remote
nodes in the cluster. Remote nodes are those nodes other than the node on
which the OUI is running (the installing machine).
The drive you mount should be the drive the OUI will write to, and it must be
the same drive on all cluster nodes. There should be at least five megabytes of
space on the remote drives.
The
net use
command can be used to mount drives on remote nodes. The user
running the
net use
command must have administrator privileges. Therefore,
running the
net use
command not only mounts drives on remote nodes but
also verifies the administrator privileges of the installer.
Administrator privileges are required for most installation tasks, such as
installing device drivers and changing registry entries. To install the OSDs,
you must have administrator privileges on each node from the installing
machine.
