I'm currently part of a project implementing Oracle eBusiness Suite 11i on RAC. We're using a two-node cluster with shared storage, both nodes are configured identical. Kernel is 2.4.9-e.27enterprise and ocfs is 1.0.9-11. I have checked and the shared storage can be accessed directly without any problems from both nodes (/dev/sdx). Curious if anyone has any suggestions or comments

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

We had a situation over the weekend with our production database that we can't figure out, hoping someone can shed some light.

We shut down the database for san

Hi, we have a 2 node / 3 node RAC installation with OCFS. We have the following observations. 1. TIME STAMP Issue We have noticed that the time stamp which is shown on the datafiles doesnt remain the same even after a shutdown normal /shutdown immediate i.e If I shutdown all RAC instances ( A , B , C) using shutdown normal / immediate, the timestamp on the datafiles are not the same. Even

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

we are running OCFS on 2.4.21-15.0.4.ELsmp ocfs-2.4.21-EL-smp-1.0.12-1 ocfs-support-1.0.10-1 ocfs-tools-1.0.10-1 I have been deleting datafiles, more than 3 times successfully for rman duplication, from a mount point /data1 (total 191G). Last week when I tried to delete datafiles from the same directory, it did delete datafiles but did not release (reclaim) all space. It still showed that 20G of

Hi, I am currently involved in a project with E-Business 11i.9. For the production enviroment, ct. wants to implement Load Balance and Fail Over - both middle tier and database tier, the last with RAC. As E11i creates lots of tablespaces, the best way seems to be OCFS. We installed & configured OCFS partitions. The next step was to install E11i multi tier, single instance - already

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

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, i have a problem with ocfs. i did some tests with dbms_stats on a 2-node RAC and got the following error: Thu Feb 17 15:36:31 2005 KCF: write/open error block=0x7800 online=1 file=13 /db/GKEZ/tablespaces/voeb/idx01_kez.dbf error=27072 txt: 'Linux Error: 5: Input/output error Additional information: 30719' Automatic datafile offline due to write error on file 13:

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 experts, My customer issued debugocfs to check for file_size and extent info but values such as file_size, alloc_size, next_free_ext were 0.

Sunil Mushran wrote: >And as that gets into reading debugocfs outputs, the user has to make the determination, if the effort is worth the gain in performance. Why only logfiles? Well, because Oracle performs large ios only to the logfiles. The ios to be datafiles are in smaller chunks. Hope this helps. Sunil I'd like to point out a small mistake in this post. Oracle most certainly

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

Hi, I have a 2-node cluster on 2 Dell PowerEdge 2650. When remove a device path, and both nodes crashed. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

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

We are seeing some performance issues runnig on 64-bit Linux. Running against a raw partition we can get 100MB/s write speed when creating a datafile. Using OCFS we get 30-40MB/s and at times it is so slow it is hard to measure. Anyone else see these issues? We are running the latest versions of both Oracle and OCFS. I've opened a ticket with Oracle but am interested in other's
