Is the order important when installing ocfs2 and Oracle RAC? If you have an existing RAC installation and you want to use ocfs2 for shared files but not for the OCR or Voting Disks, do you need to reinstall the Oracle Clusterware after installing OCFS2?

I am having problems when using a Dell PowerVault MD3000 with multipath from a Dell PowerEdge 1950. I have 2 cables connected and mount the partition on the DAS Array. I am using RHEL 4.4 with RHCS and a two node cluster. Only one node is "Active" at a time, it creates a mount to the partition, and if there is an issue RHCS will fence the device and then the other node will mount the

hello everybody I successfully installed a *very* small two node cluster with a shared volume on linux (both debian, one x86, one ARM [laugh not: NSLU2 :)]). before that, I tried to install the "clusterware" package on my windows xp box and it constantly complained about the three different ip addresses it wanted to see, then I got so frustrated with numerous manual hosts-file

We have a test 10gR2 RAC cluster using ocfs2 filesystems for the Clusterware files and the Database files. We need to increase the node slots to accomodate new RAC nodes. Is it true that we will need to umount these filesystems for the upgrade (i.e. Database and Clusterware also)? We are planning to use the following command format to perform the node slot increase: # tunefs.ocfs2 ?N 3

We have two virtual machines on ESX 3 running CentOS 4.3 and we'd like to turn them into some sort of highly available nfs file server. Currently, I am familiar with DRBD and RHCS but I was curious what others might recommend in such a situation. I'm not sure how easily we could use RHCS in such a situation because we don't really have the advantage of shared storage in this setup.

Hi all, Somebody knows when RHCS for CentOS 4 will be out??? -- CL Martinez carlopmart {at} gmail {d0t} com

hello folks! here's my situation: i've got two WTI RPB+ remote power switches (essentially a 5-port power strip which you can control via serial interface to make each of the ports switch on and off independently). they work fine; i plug a DB-9 cable into the back of my machine, fire up minicom, and i have full control. however, my eventual plan is to use these as fencing

Hello fellows, I have a problem with a 2 node RHCS cluster (CentOS 4) where node 1 failed and node 2 became active. That happened already last year and due to holidays the customer didn't recognize it. The cluster is just a failover for Apache and has no shared storage space. Customer now saw the situation, tried to fix it by rebooting node 1, which then failed to come back up. As

I want to set up a cluster that is used for web hosting (RHCS cluster). Recently, I experimented with a 2 node cluster and was able to run it successfully. However, I have started facing some issues with Apache, which I had configured as a service using the Cluster configuration tool. To do this Apache needs a floating IP address. This address is in addition to the network interface IP address.

Hi folks, I have upgraded my CentOS RHCS cluster hosts to the recent packages, and now live migration of the xen virtual machines does not work any more: [root at node ~]# clusvcadm -M vm:XenVM -m othernode Trying to migrate vm:XenVM to othernode...Invalid operation for resource I have googled the net but found no recent entries for that problem, just older posts. Has anyone had the same

built for Centos 4, source from RHEL RHCS/RHGFS rpms in ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/os/RH{CS|GFS} kernel related rpms are built against i686 only. http://chantaipo.cjb.net:8080/pub/centos/4/RH{CS|GFS}/i386 only up2date works at the moment if you want to try them out.

RHEL 4 (CENT OS) Am I waisting my time trying to get the 10G Clusterware installer to use OCFS2 volumes for the voting and OCR disks ? The ocfs2 setup seems happy on both nodes but the 10G installer says the location entered for the oracle cluster registry (OCR) is not shared across all the nodes in the cluster Do the volumes need to mounted ? I did with no change . [root@green rc5.d]#

Hi, I'm looking information about using libvirt with san (fiber channel) based storage and googling for a while i don't see anything about it. I send this email in order to get advices about libvirt and shared storage We use here, for 3 years now, 8 linux centos server connected to an hitachi FC SAN (multipath devices). Each server run Xen dom0 and use SAN LUNs to store Virtual machine

Hello, I have installed ocfs2 without problem and use it for a RAC10gR2. Only Clusterware files are ocfs2 type. multipath is also used. When I issue : mounted.ocfs2 -f I have a strange result: Device FS Nodes /dev/sda ocfs2 Unknown: Bad magic number in inode /dev/sda1 ocfs2 pocrhel2, pocrhel1 /dev/sdb ocfs2 Not mounted /dev/sdf

Hello everyone, once again. We are running into a problem, which has shown now 2 times, possible 3 (once the systems looked different.) The environment is 6 HP DL360/380 g5 servers with eth0 being the public interface, eth1 and bond0 (eth2 and eth3) used for clusterware and bond0 also used for OCFS2. The bond0 interface is in active/passive mode. There are no network errors counters showing and

Hi? All: I have two physical machines as KVM hosts (clusterA.RHCS and clusterB.RHCS) , an iscsi target set into GFS. All I want is a HA Cluster which could migrate all the virtual machines on a node to another when the first node failed into some error status. So I created a cluster "cluster" using RHCS ,added the two hosts into the cluster . created a fence device . for every virtual

Hi all, I have problem with my servers. I use two of HP Blade Servers and RHEL 4.6 installed on them, and have IBM DS4700 connected to them. In those servers are running RHCS (Red Hat Cluster Suite) with GFS for handling Oracle Database. Yesterday, I had missing one partition from the storage, suddenly. I called IBM and they suggested to use RDAC. The question is, Why should use IBM RDAC for

Hi all, I have installed rhcs on a CentOS 4.4 server with clvmd.

Hi, I would like to ask about status of VDE and libvirt. I found a thread from http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2008-February/msg00030.html. I am not interested in connecting the VDE to the outside world. I have created a FW machine using macvtap. To this machine I would like to attach machines from different zones (dmz, prod, cust). I was thinking on using VDE and vlans (FW would
