Metadata server software installation and configuration

This topic provides the procedures for installing prerequisite software and configuring the metadata server. Note that you need to complete these procedures on each metadata server.

Context

Tip: When entering a file name at the command line (for instance, with the cp or rpm commands) you can use the Tab key to automatically complete the file name. Enter enough of the file name to differentiate between files, and then press the Tab key.
