System configuration
Note
Set the host OS as an NTP server and the guest OS as an NTP client, and then perform time synchronization.
If you want to use the system as a test environment, you can configure it so that the redundant administrative LAN is created on the guest OS by GLS.
Assign more than two virtual CPUs to each guest OS which comprises the cluster system.

Note
The local class disks or shared class disks used by GDS on the guest OS should be created as virtual SCSI devices if they are used in the virtual machine environment.

Example. If disk mirroring is to be executed:
In this example, mirror group group0003, which consists of physical disks sdc and sdd, is created, and mirrored volume volume0003 is created in group0003.
