Launch the Console Server process on the machine where the server components have been installed. Refer to the

Running the Console Server

section for details.

On the client machine launch the DCE Console program. The first time you run the Console you will be prompted for a Rulebase name. The Rulebase will contain the rules for your Clustering Project(s) being used.

For example:

If you have an existing Rulebase you wish to use from a previous Clustering Project then specify it at this point. It is optional whether you specify the Rulebase filename with or without a file extension as an extension of

.db

will be automatically added to the Rulebase name.

Otherwise, enter the name of the new Rulebase and hit

OK

. You will be warned that the Rulebase does not exist but continue and you will be able to create the Rulebase within the main console window.
