      In the case of the Oracle RAC environment, ensure that the NFS Address list includes IP Addresses from all the cluster nodes. NFS address given at the time of environment creation is applied to all the discovered RAC nodes. If some nodes in the cluster need a different IP Address list, users can edit the specific host and update the NFS Address after the environment has been created.
      If specified, Delphix Engine only allows NFS requests (mount, etc) originated from IP Addresses specified for the host.
  7. Click Next to review the Summary of RAC cluster environment and click Submit.
