Hi Bharat/Philip, I haven't tested it yet. My systems are running RHAS 2.1. I'll come back to let you now the outcome.

Is the following statement still valid for either OCFS 1.0.9-12 or OCFS 1.0.11-1? The following is from one of the questions put forward by Derek Suzuki on Ocfs-users "A couple more minor questions about OCFS and RHEL3" > Next, I saw a Metalink thread which suggests that async I/O is not > supported on OCFS with RHAS 2.1. It doesn't say anything about RHEL3. > We've

Running database in ASYNC mode in RHEL 3 has a potential risk of redo logs failure due to some short io's. A note from http://oss.oracle.com/projects/ocfs/dist/files/RedHat/RHEL3/i386/README.txt says that the above mentioned problem is fixed in OCFS 1.0.9-12 "RELEASE 1.0.9-12 Fixes a potential corruption with large, aligned, direct I/Os, for example Oracle redo logs or direct path SQL

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. Not a directory But it isn't a raw device. Any one know why it search for a raw device ? Thanks <DIV><FONT

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

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

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

Oracle appears to have Wim chained in the basement, forced to answer mailing list questions at all hours. I do appreciate it. Our cluster has been stable since we installed RAC, but a few minor issues have me concerned. First, our storage array seems to maintain continuous low-level activity even when the database is shut down. The CPUs spend a modest amount of time in iowait state while this

hi, i have a problem with ocfs. i did some tests with dbms_stats on a 2-node RAC and got the following error: Thu Feb 17 15:36:31 2005 KCF: write/open error block=0x7800 online=1 file=13 /db/GKEZ/tablespaces/voeb/idx01_kez.dbf error=27072 txt: 'Linux Error: 5: Input/output error Additional information: 30719' Automatic datafile offline due to write error on file 13:

(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

A few weeks back we opened a TAR with Oracle support to determine whether an OCFS (1.0.9-12) + async configuration was considered supportable. At first a technician said yes, but I followed up with Wim's explanation of how that combination is potentially troublesome and inadequately tested. The technician double-checked, then confirmed that OCFS + async is considered risky. He did say that a

Hello again. Our production cluster has begun experiencing some vicious slowdowns that may (or may not) be related to the filesystems. When the problem occurs, the load average on the servers jumps up to 30 or higher. Usually one node will climb while the other drops, then they will switch places a few minutes later. At one point, we had one node's load average up over 300. Our site

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

Looking for any ideas where I need to look to fix this: I'm installing RHEL3 AS (update 4) on Dell PowerEdge 6850's.

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

Another simple question. How do I calculate the size of the volume from the superblock? Do I just use the two fields: u_int32_t s_blocksize_bits; /* Blocksize for this fs */ u_int32_t s_clustersize_bits; /* Clustersize for this fs */ What is the formula to use? Thanks, John
