similar to: OCFS & Red Hat AS 4

I'm attempting to build the inexpensive 10g RAC cluster as outlined in Jeffrey Hunter's paper "Build Your Own Oracle RAC 10g Clulster on Linux and FireWire". I've got the hardware working and everything is looking good up to the step where I need to download and install OCFS. I'm using WhiteBox Linux v. 4, which is RedHat AS 4 and based on 2.6 kernel. I did find an

Sorry for cross posting, but I somehow came to think that this question might possibly be more suitable in this mailinglist. I am currently fiddeling around with Fedora Core 2. Does anyone of you have any pointers on where to start reading to compile OCFS 1.0.13 on a 2.6.8 kernel? Is it at all possible?

Well, I've downloaded the kernel source code from http://mirror.dulug.duke.edu/pub/redhat/linux/updates/enterprise/2.1AS/en/os /SRPMS/kernel-2.4.18-e.40.src.rpm and compiled it for x86 (i686). Is this kernel compatible with ocfs ?? __________________________________________ Mauro Staretz - MI Montreal Inform?tica Ltda Microsoft MCSE+I / MCDBA / MCP - Oracle OCP Tel: 55-21-2291-6116 R.2104

Hi All Does anyone have information on OCFS compatibility with Legato. i.e Can we use Letato to backup directly from OCFS Volumes. Also does OCFS work with BCV.

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

What does 'modprobe -d ocfs' show? If it tells you 'symbols not found' it's the RPMs incompatible with your kernel version. Ensure you have the correct RPMs. Successful 'rpm -ivh' doesn't mean correct installation. Should be: [root@pc33 root]# modprobe -d ocfs ============================================= Module ocfs kname ocfs objkey ocfs names: ocfs mode: NORMAL

I successfully have OCFS running in a two-node RAC environment using RHAS 3 (2.4.21-4.EL) using Qlogic 2310 cards. IO performance, however, was terrible with the combination of OCFS and the Qlogic cards. After extensive testing, OCFS did fine on its own, as did the fibre cards. Put the two together, and everything literally ran twice as slow. Support at Qlogic pointed me to

Thanks Sunil for your advice. I tried that both for ocfs-tools-1.0.10.tar.gz and ocfs-1.0.12.tar.gz. ./configure --with kernel=/usr/src/linux-2.4.21.-9.0.01.ELorafw1 make KVER=up make install That was successful. When I tried to load_ocfs I still got "undefined symbol" errors. I found another ocfs-users thread from April where Wim suggested using the i686 kernel

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

Dear all, This maybe one of the FAQs on OCFS. From Oracle's note : 237997.1 "Linux OCFS - Best Practice" point 5 "Calculating an OCFS Partition Size" it mentions: OCFS supports partitions of up to 1Tb (tested). Since no volume management is built into OCFS, Oracle recommends enabling hardware raid support to create logical disk volumes of sufficient size. If hardware

Hi, using ocfs-2.4.9-e-smp-1.0.12-1 on Redhat 3 U4 Trying to copy files from an ocfs volume to an ext3 volume is very very slow - talking a couple of minutes for a 100Mb file. same happens if I use o-direct or not, dd exhibits the same behaviour ocfs is in the updatedb.conf and both filesystems are in the PRUNEPATHS line in the same file (a reboot was done after the changes were made just to

That should say below, we are using Powerpath on the CX300's AND the CX600's... ----------------------------------------------------------------------- We are using Powerpath with CX300's and Emulex HBA's, also with OCFS on Red Hat 2.1 AS. Kernel upgrades are the biggest issue that we have, as some of the drivers are dependent on modules built for specific kernels, and if your

Hi, I am trying to install Oracle 9i RAC on SLES 8 SP3 with a shared firewire disk.

Well, I've compiled and installed Kernel 2.4.9-37 uniprocessor. I've made ocfs setup using version 1.0.9-9 uniprocessor. I've generated ocfs.conf using ocfstool.

Hello, I want to use ocfs for a 10g RAC installation on a 2 node cluster, consisting of 1 Athlon and 1 Pentium machine with Firewire storage. OS is RHAS 3. Since I need to build my own binary Athlon rpm's, I downloaded ocfs-1.0.12.tar.gz ocfs-tools-1.0.10.tar.gz I was able to install both (./configure ; make - make install). When I try to load_ocfs I get lots of errors
