This setup will be very useful for experienced administrator to test/practice various volume manager configurations. I have used normal PC with 1Gb Ram/and 40gb hdd. Base OS is running on fedora
If you want to connect VMware console remotely from your desktop
Login to Linux box and find wmware authentication service port number
# grep vmware-authd /etc/services
vmware-authd 904/tcp
verify vmware –authd service is running using
#netstat –a grep vmware-authd
tcp 0 0 *:vmware-authd *:* LISTEN
Open VMware console from your system
Select remote host and specify ipaddress:portnumber and give login as root
192.168.80.5:904
Configuration
.I have installed Base Solaris 10 package with some addition packages which will enable to install Storage Foundation suite .
VERITAS storage foundation 5.0 for x86 is free downloadable from VERITAS site and you create maximum 4 volume with free version .
Since I’m not using any Xwindow manager I have chosen following configuration for Solaris 10 in vmware
Memory : 256m
HDD : 2 * 3 GB SCSI rootdisk/mirrodisk
HDD 1GB * 6 SCSI HDD.
Crete HDD based on your requirement and HDD availability
NIC : 1
Note : Make sure you are creating SCSI disks only .Volume manager will not work with IDE DISK.
Download packages
I have downloaded all the required packages on my Linux server and shared across NFS.
Since I’m using a 3gb disk for bootdisk its better to store source package outside the virtual machine
Download all packages to /home/downloads
10_x86_Recommended.zip
sxrt5.0x64_x86_5.0x64a.dvd2.tar.gz
unzip 10_x86_Recommended.zip
mkdir Veritas
cd Veritas
tar zxvf ../ sxrt5.0x64_x86_5.0x64a.dvd2.tar.gz
