Hi all, hoping someone has some insight on this issue. I am working on a first install of RAC. I have installed OCFS 1.0.9.4 (upgraded from 1.0.8 before installing the rest of the oracle software) on a 3 node RedHat AS 2.1 cluster. The kernel is 2.4.9-e.25.enterprise. Oracle software installed 9.2.0.4. I fdisk'd the storage devices, mkfs.ocfs on the partitions, and mounted successfully on

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 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

We recently switched to Rails 1.1.2, which includes the latest version of ActiveRecord. This version seems to have introduced an error with the handling of non-binary large objects. The OCI adapter in 1.13.2 seemed to have treated CLOB and BLOB identically. The new Oracle adapter distinguishes between the two types and gives CLOB a type of :text, where as BLOB are :binary When it comes to

Hello All, I am currently running ocfs 1.0.9-9 with kernel 2.4.21-4.Elhugemem (RHEL3) and 9i RAC (9.2.0.4).

Oh yeah - easy way to check, Randy: Next time your node hangs, get on the OTHER NODE and go into each directory where files are being opened (datafiles, archivelogs, controlefiles, redo logs, etc) and delete a file (you can create one first then delete it). If this causes the hung node to recover then you're having the same problem I was having. Jeremy >>> "Jeremy

Hi, well i mounted the OCFS drive over nfs, but it seems to have problems with it, because the NFS does not detect changes (if I add or delete files) the nfs shares still shows the old status. If i delete a file on the OCFS volume, and i am doing a "ls" on one of the nfs clients, it says for every file which was on the ocfs, "no such file or directory". Did I miss

an ocfs-volume was nearly full (only 800MB free). i deleted some datafiles to free space: $ df -h .

I have noticed that OCFS is not updating the filesystem space stats when datafiles are reduced in size: is this Bug 62, and if so is there an expected fix date? ocfs-2.4.9-e-enterprise-1.0.11-1 ocfs-support-1.0.10-1 ocfs-tools-1.0.10-1 Linux sgl43d-122 2.4.9-e.35enterprise #1 SMP Wed Jan 7 15:11:27 EST 2004 i686 unknown bytes name 2097152000 /data/oracle/QSG40/u01/dtr_med_i_02.dbf /dev/sdc1

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 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

Can I create an OCFS 2 filesystem over a ASM volume to store datafiles? Thanks! Roger---
