- Do not use space and the following characters when specifying a new
name for the CommServe Host Name:

Click Next to continue.
NOTES:
- If Windows Firewall is enabled on the computer, this option is selected by default and must be enabled to proceed with the installation.
- If Windows Firewall is disabled on the computer, you can select
this option to add the programs and services to enabled CommCell
operations across the firewall, if the firewall is enabled at a
later time.
You can either select this option during install or add the programs and services after installation. For adding the programs and services after installation, see Configure Windows Firewall to Allow CommCell Communication.

The install program now starts copying the software to the computer. This step may take several minutes to complete.
Install Remaining Cluster Nodes
To complete the install for this node only, click No.
NOTES
- The list of Preferred Nodes displays all the nodes found in the cluster; from this list you should only select cluster nodes configured to host this cluster group server.

Click Next to continue.
Click Stop to prevent installation to any nodes after the current ones complete.

- Time allocated for Setup to complete on each node, after which the install attempt will fail.
NOTES
- If, during the remote install of a cluster node, setup fails to complete or is interrupted, you must perform a local install on that node. When you do, the install begins from where it left off, or from the beginning if necessary. For procedures, see Manually Installing the Software on a Passive Node.
NOTES
- If any node installation fails, you must manually install the software on that node once the current installation is complete. (See Manually Installing the Software on a Passive Node for step-by-step instructions.)
- The message displayed on your screen will reflect the status of the selected nodes, and may look different from the example.
Click Next to continue.
