List other nodes in the cluster where the Internet Agent and its MTA could fail over.

For more information, see Determining an Appropriate Failover Path for the Internet Agent Volume.

4) MTA Installation Location:

  • vol:\system on Internet Agent volume
  • sys:\system on each node
    Consolidate multiple MTA startup files on Internet Agent volume?

Mark the location where you will install the MTA software. If necessary, specify the location where you will consolidate multiple MTA startup files on an Internet Agent volume.

For more information, see Deciding Where to Install the Internet Agent and Its MTA.

5) MTA Network Information:

  • MTA IP address
  • MTA message transfer port
  • MTA live remote port
  • MTA HTTP port

Gather the MTA network address information from the Internet Agent section of the IP Address Worksheet.

For more information, see Planning a Secondary IP Address and Cluster-Unique Port Numbers for the Internet Agent and Its MTA.

6) Internet Agent
Installation Location:

  • vol:\system on the Internet Agent volume
  • sys:\system on each node
    Consolidate multiple Internet Agent configuration files on Internet Agent volume?

Mark the location where you will install the Internet Agent software.

If necessary, specify the location where you will consolidate multiple Internet Agent configuration files (gwia.cfg) on an Internet Agent volume.

For more information, see Deciding Where to Install the Internet Agent and Its MTA.

7) Internet Agent
Network Information:

  • Internet Agent IP address
  • Internet Agent HTTP port

Gather the Internet Agent network address information from the Internet Agent section of the IP Address Worksheet.

For more information, see Planning a Secondary IP Address and Cluster-Unique Port Numbers for the Internet Agent and Its MTA.

8) Load Internet Agent and Its MTA
in Protected Memory?

  • No
  • Yes

Protected address space names:

  • MTA:
  • Internet Agent:

Mark whether you need to run the Internet Agent and its MTA in protected memory. If so, specify a unique address space for each agent.
