Greetings, Having read about the previous OSFS hangs, I think this one that we are seeing is different, but I'm not sure if this is caused by OCFS or the Linux OS. We are running OCFS Version 1.09 with Linux AS 3.0/9i RAC. We have a 2 node Intel Cluster (Node 1 and Node 2). This morning the DBA tried to do an "ls" command on /u06/oradata/database

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, I am trying to install Oracle 9i RAC on SLES 8 SP3 with a shared firewire disk. I am using the following OCFS: OCFS Release 1.0.11-1 for suse sp3 2.4.21-138 smp kernel ocfs-2.4.21-138-smp-1.0.11-1.i586.rpm ocfs-tools-1.0.10-1.i386.rpm ocfs-support-1.0.10-1.i386.rpm 1/ I have configured OCFS and a shared file system /opt/oracle/oradata 2/ I have created a raw device for use as quorum

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

Dear Experts, One of our client wants to use OCFS for their 9i RAC(2 node) on RHEL3 and also use GFS on the nodes. Would there be any issues using OCFS for Oracle 9i RAC and using GFS for failing over things like print services on the same node? Has this been tested? I know these are competing products and OCFS 2.0is not an option now for the client. They need GFS for their custom apps. Any ideas

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

Ivan, I found the same thing after doing an upgrade a couple of months ago and mailed this list. Never got a response. We had to fdisk the shared disks and remount them and restore db from backup.

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

I am starting to see a few issues with OCFS and 9.2.0.3 RAC on redHat Linux AS 2.1. Wondering if there is anyone out there experiencing similar issues... a few pointers to the issues.. 1. OCFS read/write performance is way lower than a read/write to a raw device.. i can give you some comparison numbers.. 2. Writes to shared disk with ocfs would get locked up by one server.. it doesnt have to

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

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
