Hi All, we are using Red Hat 2.1 Kernel e38 along with MSA 1000. ocfs version being used is $ rpm -qa | grep ocfs ocfs-tools-1.0.10-1 ocfs-2.4.9-e-enterprise-1.0.12-1 ocfs-support-1.0.10-1 Database Version is 9.2.0.5 However we find that the performance of the database on OCFS is too slow. even a select count(1) from all_tables takes like a while to complete. We initially assumed RAC is

Hi all, Sorry to break in, but I find this thread a bit interesting. Jeram: I'm not very familiar with HP storage and cannot find too much info on the EVA 6000 array. Is it related to the EVA 5000 somehow, or is it a NAS array? In any case, how is the array configured. If the algorithm for hartbeat is as described earlier (36 sector reads and one write per second (per host???)) then you

Hi all... I have a strange problem. 2 of my mount points already use 7% of space, even when I check the directory is empty. When I re-format it, it release the space for a while, after 1 or 2 days, the space is used again for 7% - 10 %. What could be the reason? I am using RHAS 2.1 Enterprise Kernel 2.1 and OCFS release 1.0.9-6 Thanks Jeram

Hi OCFS Gurus... I have 2 questions for OCFS ver 1.0.10.1 1. What is the Maximum mount point suggested if we are using OCFS ? 2. Is there any method to tune the OCFS to booster the IO performance? Awaiting ur responses... Thanks in Advance... Rgds/Jeram

We had a situation over the weekend with our production database that we can't figure out, hoping someone can shed some light. Specifics: Oracle 9.2.0.4 OS is Redhat AS2.1 ocfs-2.4.9-e-summit-1.0.12-1 ocfs-tools-1.0.10-1 ocfs-support-1.0.10-1 ocfs-2.4.9-e-enterprise-1.0.12-1 All database, redo, undo, and control files are on ocfs, archived logs are on ext3. We shut down the database for san

Hi All, Scenario: I'm trying to install 9i rac on a 2 node cluster on OCFS2 OS: Oracle enterprise linux To my understanding, OCFS2 supports shared home installs which to my knowledge is not only can i have datafile and control files but also clustermanager files and binaries (pretty much everything: no files or executables need to kept local to any nodes). I have one single shared file for

Hi all Just need some ideas, is there any consideration if I collaborate OCFS + RHAS2.1 + RHAS 3.0 ( with 64bit Processor) in a RAC environment with 10 nodes. TIA Jeram

Sort of a followup... We've been running OCFS in sync mode for a little over a month now, and it has worked reasonably well. Performance is still a bit spotty, but we're told that the next kernel update for RHEL3 should improve the situation. We might eventually move to Polyserve's cluster filesystem for its multipathing capability and potentially better performance, but at least we

Can I run OCFS on Windows? We have OCFS running on RHAS 2.1 and have some customers asking about clustering on windows servers instead of linux. Are there some docs I can refer to?

(Yep, it's me again) We've worked around some minor glitches and now have a pair of nodes happily sharing an OCFS volume. I was wondering, though, if it was possible to configure a second private IP address so that the nodes could communicate over more than one Gigabit Ethernet connection. Our RAC books and online docs make some vague references to multiple interconnects, but I have yet

Wim, Thanks for your prompt response on this. The tpmC figures look very impressive, and tpmC is read intensive. I had already read note 236679.1 "Comparing Performance Between RAW IO vs OCFS vs EXT2/3" which I guess is the article to which you are referring; it made me suspect that the poor performance was due to the lack of an OS IO cache but I wasn't sure. The database is

Hi, I'm setting up a 2-node Oracle 9i RAC on OCFS2. But I have some problems with understanding how the shared Oracle_Home is being used. For instance there is the *$ORACLE_HOME/oracm/admin/cmcfg.ora* file. The $ORACLE_HOME is on the SAN so the 2 nodes have access to this file. How will the settings then be done per node? Is there a guide/tutorial/howto for installing Oracle 9i RAC on
