Hi all, My Ct's box is RH 3.0 SMP kernel EM64T. They are asking if OCFS for SMP (EM64T) is available or not. In following site, we can not see OCFS for SMP (EM64T). http://oss.oracle.com/projects/ocfs/files/RedHat/RHEL3/x86_64/1.0.14-1/ ---------- ocfs-2.4.21-EL-1.0.14-1.ia32e.rpm OCFS driver for kernel version 2.4.21-27.EL and higher (EM64T) ocfs-2.4.21-EL-1.0.14-1.src.rpm OCFS driver

Hi All, Can I have the release plan of OCFS R1.0.15? Our big Customer, *** BANK, has hit BUG:4590449 (fixed in R1.0.15) and we need to show our ETA of R1.0.15 now. # Customer's system is running on RH 2.1 x86.

Hi, all. My name is Kenichiro Ochi, in Oracle Japan Support. Customer examines upgrading OCFS from 1.0.9-12 to 1.0.14-1. And customer asked us a question about the way of downgrading to 1.0.9-12. (customer presumes a case in case after the upgrade.) We tested the following... 0.After the upgrade 1.umount OCFS volume on all nodes 2.uninstall rpm (V1.0.14-1) # rpm -e ocfs-tools-1.0.10-1 # rpm

We're using RMAN to back up our 9.2 RAC database to an OCFS v1 volume. We have an existing shell script that we use for copying files from disk to tape via tar, one file at a time. (Don't ask why. It's a legacy script. Long story.) We're tweaking this script to use --o_direct when tarring the file to tape and that seems to be working fine: # tape device is /dev/nst0 $ tar

OCFS Experts, Sorry if the questions below are naive, or were answered before, but here it goes. I have a potential client who at the moment having problems installing 10g RAC on RHEL 3.0 (2.4.21-20). They using (rather planning to use) OCFS for everything, including CRS files (OCR, voting). Questions: 1) They use custom kernel (modified by their security people). Do we support OCFS on the

Hi, Experts. I'm Kenichiro Ochi, the support engineer of Oracle Japan. I would like to ask you the following questions about supported files on OCFS. I know OCFS VER 1.X only supports Oracle datafiles (including archive logfiles). My customer has one question. - Is it supported that archive logfiles on OCFS are compressed (using compress, gzip command etc) ? In other words, is it

Hi, We are currently rolling over our SAN (FC4700 to CX700) and have now reached the data migration stage. I need to move the data files on my current /u01 ocfs file system (on FC4700) to a new ocfs file system (on CX700) which I want to keep as the same /u01 mount point on the hosts. With a normal file system I would just mount the new file system to a temporary mount point, copy the data,

hi list, i have a little problem with 2-node RAC using OCFS. the application running on this cluster does heavily index-based accesses. the data volumes are SAN volumes connected by fibrechannel. the throughput does not exceed 10mb/s, average is 7-8 mb/s. i've used 'iostat -x' and got rkB/s=8000 while %util=100% (device was saturated) from kernel's POV. i did some

Hi, I'm new to the list, so forgive me if I'm asking several naive questions that have been answered a dozen times before. I have RHAS with kernel version 2.4.9-e.10smp, running ocfs-support-1.0-2, ocfs-tools-1.0-2, ocfs-2.4.9-e.10-smp-1.0-2. I have Oracle 9iR2 RAC up and running on an IBM fiber channel architecture. I find it to be extremely slow compared to other stand alone

Hello list users. I am trying to create an ocfs filesystem but when I execute the command says the following thing to me: rac01:~ # mkfs.ocfs -b 128 -g oinstall -u oracle -L ocfs_pruebas -m /opt/oracle/oradata/OCFS -p 755 /dev/sdf1 Error opening device /dev/raw/raw41.

Hi, we have installed ocfs2 on Rhat 4. It is being used as a general clustered file system. There are no oracle binaries or datafiles on the ocfs volume. So no need for RMAN or oarcle agents etc etc. The customer would like to backup the volume using arcserve. However CA are saying that they cannot backup from an ocfs volume. Has anyone out there got any words of wisdom about backing up

Hello All We currently use rsync for various jobs at our company. We are now looking at using it to create an offsite synchronized copy of an Oracle 10g RAC archive logs area. The source area is on Oracle OCFS file system. The OCFS filesystem requires all reads/writes to be performed with the O_DIRECT option, thus bypassing cache. Oracle provide an updated coreutils package which includes the
