/dev/rawctl is part of the "raw block device" driver interface. You need to turn on the raw device driver option (CONFIG_RAW_DRIVER) in your kernel build. I have always created a new file system from my 2.4 kernel (that has all possible modules built and properly configured to load when needed), so I don't know for sure if mkfs.ocfs will work correctly after turning on the raw

I people, i install the ocfs in my virtual machine, with centos 5.3 and xen. But when i turn off the machine1, the ocfs start the fencing off the machine2. I read the doc in oracle.com, but could not solve the problem. Someone help? My conf and my package version. cluster.conf node: ip_port = 7777 ip_address = 192.168.1.35 number = 0 name = x1 cluster

We are in the process of upgrading to OCFS2. We have recently restored our Production Database to a Development platform configured with OCFS2 with RMAN. No problems. As for the Production migration, we understand that you cannot mount an OCFS volume (our current configuration) with OCFS2. We are interested in mounting an EXT3 file system, performing a cold RMAN backup, copying the datafiles

Hello all, are there any issues concerning ocfs2 (v 1.2.3) and device-mapper-multipath-0.4.5-12.0.RHEL4? I've build a 4 node cluster with two ocfs2 mounts on /dev/dm-0 and /dev/dm-1. Under heavy load the nodes dies after about two minutes reproducably ;-(( Once I've loaded the ocfs2 modules it seems to me that both modules (device-mapper-multipath related as well as ocfs related) are

Hi all, i am new to ocfs2. currently i am playing with ocfs on debian6 wich ocfs2 1.4. and also Oracle Enterprise Linux 5 & 6 with OCFS 1.6. The volume reside on an Dell MD3220i. When i set the active controller to offline, the client should initiate an failover to the second controller. this works, of only one clustermember is active for ocfs. At the moment there are two

I currenlty have the setup below, both nodes can see the shared drive ( confirmed with fdisk -l ) However I am unable to mount the shared device from node (2) after I mounted from node(1) I get the follwoign error mount.ocfs2: Transport endpoint is not connected while mounting /dev/sdb1 on /u02/oradata/orcl OS Red Hat uname -r --------------------------------- 2.6.9-22.ELsmp OCFS version

This is related to the "No space on OCFS2 volume" error discussed here this past Sep/Oct. Our Oracle support rep pointed us to Metalink note #1232702.1 and suggested we should script something up to periodically check the free contiguous blocks in the group chains for the volume in question. Reading the note, I get how to get Clusters per Group X Bits per Cluster from the "stat

Hello All, Is it normal to lose a shared node in OCFS shared servers? We have either lost the whole ocfs mount point or lost mount point on one of the shared nodes couple of times. Is this due to some misconfiguration? Thanks, Pratima Kalra (916) 795-3833 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hello, I am facing a problem during root.sh of 10g Release 2, on RH 4.0 update 1 + ocfs2. During the root.sh it reports the following error: PROT-1: Failed to initialize ocrconfig Failed to upgrade Oracle Cluster Registry configuration Looking to the created ocrconfig logfile we can see the following: Oracle Database 10g CRS Release 10.2.0.1.0 Production Copyright 1996, 2005 Oracle.

I have been trying to get OCFS2 set up on 2 linux boxes that I have so I can install RAC. What I want to do: Server 1 I have a 200G drive I would like to share with server 2. Install OCFS2 and run RAC using these two servers. What I have been able to do: I have been able to install OCFS2 successfully on both nodes. Define a partition on Server 1 disk and format it using OCFS2. Mount

I want to mount a san lun with ocfs (windows) on another host, not containing oracle ocfs services, which are installed during crs install with oracle installer. Any ideas for an installation procedure from original oracle crs media or other sources ? Finally i want to use this to backup the ocfs containing lun on the other host with a backup product .... Thanks Helmar -- -------------- next

I am in the middle of rolling RHEL 4 update 5 ( 2.6.9-55) through my servers. We use a development, QA, and production rollout. Unfortunately I have ocfs members in each of these groups that need to share filesystems. The network compatibility issues between ocfs2 tools 1.2.4 and 1.2.5 are causing the members to not be able to operate with ocfs. Hence this breaks my systems or causes me to

Hi, We have a two node cluster running SLES 9 SP2 connecting directly to an EMC CX300 for storage. We are using OCFS(OCFS2 DLM 0.99.15-SLES) for the voting disk etc, and ASM for data files. The system has been running until last Friday when the whole cluster went down with the following error messages in the /var/log/messages files : rac1: Jul 7 14:56:23 rac1 kernel:

I also sent this to OCFS2-devel but no response so far. So... I noticed that OCFS2 got updated in the last few days. I just tried to do a build and got this: [root@linuxjohn2 trunk]# make make -C src make[1]: Entering directory `/root/ocfs2/trunk/src' make[1]: *** No rule to make target `inc/io.h', needed by `alloc.c'. Stop. make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/ocfs2/trunk/src'

I am working currently on cloning on a regular basis our production OCFS2 volumes to our test environment. For the database (Oracle 10G R2 RAC) we put it into backup mode, then execute a Snapclone on our 3Par SAN. Then we use RemoteCopy and SnapClone to our development 3Par SAN. To recover the OCFS2 volume I got through the following steps: Stop database umount /export/<volume name> Log

Hi all, We just finished up the last of the work to change the on-disk format of ocfs2 and we are about to move this from the branch into trunk in svn. We tried very hard to make every conceivable change that we would want in this last pass so that this would be the final on-disk change. What this means for any of you who are tracking this project is that you will need to reformat before picking

Hi, I would like to share a file system (OCFS2) in a shared disk in the SAN for Oracle application servers 10g to share same volume between all Oracle Application servers. I am not sure Is OCFS 2 certified for OAS 10g? I have been using OCFS 2 for Oracle RAC 10g Database which is certified. Pls give your suggestion. All servers are SLES 10 SP2 with Oracle Application Server 10g. Thanks

I have installed OCFS2 on two nodes SuSE 10. Seems all works superb and nice from the first sight. But, /dev/sda ocfs2 rac1 is not sharing through net (port 7777) with rac0. On both nodes I have 500Mb /dev/sda disks that are mounted (and are ocfs2). But they did not share the content with each other (files and folders in it). So when I am creating the file in one node I am expecting to

Good Morning all, Have started seeing this over the last few days on a couple of hosts. Does anyone have any familiarity with this, and or how I can debug what mount/filesystem/inode is having the issues?

Hi all, I read the FAQ, especially the questions 75-84 about Quorum and Fencing. I want to use OCFS2 with Heartbeat V2 with heartbeat_mode 'user'. What I missed in the FAQ is a explanation of what role in the whole OCFS system is taken by HAv2 (or other Cluster software) when using heartbeat_mode 'user'. 1) When is disk heartbeating started? (Mount of device?) 2) When is
