# Appendix C. The GFS Setup Druid

The Red Hat Cluster Suite includes a graphical tool for administrators who are new to Red Hat GFS configuration. The GFS Setup Druid allows administrators to quickly migrate existing Red Hat Cluster Manager cluster systems to Red Hat GFS. The GFS Setup Druid integrates any previously configured cluster nodes and fencing devices from the existing `/etc/cluster.xml` configuration file. Administrators can then configure any new nodes and fence devices, as well as associate fence devices to nodes for proper power control.

| Note
| For more detailed information about installation, configuration, and administration of Red Hat GFS, refer to the Red Hat GFS Administrator's Guide.

The GFS Setup Druid can be started by typing `redhat-config-gfscluster` as root from a shell prompt.
