Cause

Scripts need to be run before install to validate resources are configured properly. Scripts aren't available until after installing Vertica.

Install Vertica on a single node lab server to extract the scripts. Copy them to the target production hosts to be run.

If unable to do so please open a new Support Case to request a copy of the scripts from the latest available release.
