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

I'm trying to install ocfs on a Redhat 2.1 AS, uniprocessor, kernel 2.4.18-e.40, and I'm receiving the following error message when I try to install ocfs-support-1.0.9-12.i686.rpm: Checking fir Red Hat enterprise kernel: [FAILED] error: execution of %post scriptlet from ocfs-support-1.0.9-12, exit status 1 i've already installed those packages that are required for ocfs:

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. When I start ocfs using /etc/init.d/ocfs start, I receive the following errors: [root@RAC1 root]# /etc/init.d/ocfs start Loading OCFS: /sbin/insmod ocfs node_name=RAC1.localdomain ip_address=192.168.61 2 ip_port=7000

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

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

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

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

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?

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, RHAS 2.1 ocfs -1.0.12.1 We have to exchange our current disksystem (from /dev/sdbX to /dev/emcpowera). Planned is to create partitons with the same name like on the old device and then simply copy the files to the new device. Question is now whether there is any impact (similar to change of NIC) on configuration,etc? As far as i know ocfs saves device-informations only in the volume

Hi, I'm new to the list, so forgive me if I'm asking several naive questions that have been answered a dozen times before. I have RHAS with kernel version 2.4.9-e.10smp, running ocfs-support-1.0-2, ocfs-tools-1.0-2, ocfs-2.4.9-e.10-smp-1.0-2. I have Oracle 9iR2 RAC up and running on an IBM fiber channel architecture. I find it to be extremely slow compared to other stand alone

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

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

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 All, Is there any one know if OCFS2 will be certified on RedHat AS3 or 2.1? On http://oss.oracle.com I see OCFS2 Beta is available for RHAS 4 only.
