########## GENERAL SERVER SETUP DETAILS ##########
Will this machine participate in an HA cluster? (y/n) [n]>
########## GUI SERVER SETUP DETAILS ##########
The GUI Server stores all of the user data under a single directory.
By default, this directory is /var/netscreen/GuiSvr. Because
the user data (including database data and policies) can grow to be quite large, it is sometimes desirable to place this data in another
partition.
Please enter an alternative location for this data if
so desired, or press ENTER for the location specified in the brackets.
Enter data directory location [/var/netscreen/GuiSvr]>
The GUI Server stores all of the database logs under a single directory.
By default, this directory is /var/netscreen/GuiSvr/xdb/log. Because the database log can grow to be quite
large, it is sometimes desirable to place this log in another partition.
Please enter an alternative location for this log if
so desired, or press ENTER for the location specified in the brackets.
Enter database log directory location [/var/netscreen/GuiSvr/xdb/log]>
Enter the management IP address of this server [10.157.48.108]>

########## CONFIRMATION ##########
About to proceed with the following actions:
- Install GUI Server
- Install High Availability Server
- Store base directory for management servers as /usr/netscreen - This machine will have base license with maximum 25 devices - This machine does not participate in an HA cluster
- Store GUI Server data in /var/netscreen/GuiSvr
- Store GUI Server database log in /var/netscreen/GuiSvr/xdb/log - Use IP address 10.157.48.108 for management
- Use port 8443 for NBI Service - Set password for 'super' user - CFM user: cfmuser
- CFM Password set for 'cfmuser'
- Servers will be restarted automatically in case of a failure - Local database backups are enabled
- Start backups at 02
- Daily backups will not be sent to a remote machine - Number of database backups to keep: 7
- HA rsync command backup timeout: 3600
- Create database backup in /var/netscreen/dbbackup - Start server(s) when finished: Yes
Are the above actions correct? (y/n)> y
