This deployment guide explains how to install and configure Veritas Storage Foundation and High Availability products on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) systems using the Yum package manager. Special focus is on the RHEL 6.4/6.5 version, as these require a multi-step installation process using Veritas’s Common Product Installer (CPI). Both RHEL 6.4 and RHEL 6.5 require an upgrade to the Storage Foundation 6.0.3 maintenance release and the installation of Veritas File System (VxFS) hot fix 6.0.300.300. (See article 203099 and article 214270.) 

 
Using YUM as described in this guide lets you install the Veritas Storage Foundation base product packages as well as all the necessary updates and patches from a central Yum repository in one step, without the need for multiple calls to the product installer.
