## Example: Preparing the Cluster for PostgreSQL

1. Install and configure cluster as instructed in Oracle Solaris Cluster Software Installation Guide.

   Install the following cluster software components on both nodes:

   - Oracle Solaris Cluster core software

   - Oracle Solaris Cluster data service for PostgreSQL

2. Install the following utility software on both nodes:

   - `readline` utility

   - `rsync` utility

   - `gmake` utility

   - Your C compiler

3. Beginning from the node that owns the file system, add the `postgres` users.

       phys-schost-1# groupadd -g 1000 postgres

       phys-schost-2# groupadd -g 1000 postgres

       phys-schost-1# useradd -g 1000 -d /global/mnt3/postgres -m -s /bin/ksh pgs

       phys-schost-2# useradd -g 1000 -d /global/mnt3/postgres -m -s /bin/ksh pgs

   Note - For a zone cluster, perform the steps in each zone-cluster node.

4. Ensure that the PostgreSQL users can login to each other's profile using `ssh` without a password prompt.
