Install the primary and secondary servers. They must be installed in the same location on each node. The primary companion can be either newly installed, or it can be upgraded from an earlier version, with existing databases, users, and so on. The secondary companion must be a newly installed Adaptive Server and cannot have any user logins or user databases. This is to ensure that all user logins and database names are unique within the cluster.
After configuration for fail over is complete, you can add user logins and databases to the secondary companion.
If you are installing on the local disk, ensure that any databases are created on the multihost disk.
See the installation documentation for your platform for information about installing and configuring Adaptive Server.
