Table 2-1 Cluster installation terminology (continued)
Term Definition
ePO Virtual
Network Name
resource
The Network Name resource that you create as part of the ePolicy Orchestrator
cluster installation. This virtual Network Name represents the McAfee ePO cluster
installation as a whole. References to this Network Name point to the currently
active node in your cluster.
Quorum drive One of the two drives required by Microsoft Cluster Server software. The quorum
drive is where the MSCS files are installed. Don't install any of the ePolicy
Orchestrator files on this drive.
Cluster installation prerequisites
Before you begin your cluster installation, review this list of requirements and prerequisites, and make
sure that each is in place or the information is available. These requirements apply to installations on
both Windows Server 2008 and 20012.
• Microsoft Cluster Server is set up and running on a cluster of two or more servers.
• A quorum drive is present and configured according to Microsoft guidelines.
• A data drive is present and available to all nodes in the cluster.
• A supported remote SQL Server is configured.
To confirm that the ePolicy Orchestrator software can communicate with this server during
installation:
• Verify that the SQL Browser Service is running.
• Make sure that the TCP/IP Protocol is enabled in the SQL Server Configuration Manager.
• You might need to provide these details during the installation process (depending on your
configuration), on the Database Information page:
• The name of your SQL Server. Depending on the configuration, format this name using the SQL
Server name or the SQL Server name with instance name.
• The dynamic port number, if any, used by your SQL Server. Specify the dynamic port number
during the installation process, on the Database Information page.
Install on Windows Server 2008
Installing ePolicy Orchestrator software in a cluster environment that includes Windows Server 2008
systems requires that you complete each of these tasks in the order listed.
Before you begin
Update the systems that host your McAfee ePO server and your SQL Server with the latest
Microsoft security updates, then turn off Windows updates during the installation process.
