similar to: Why OCFS2 with RAC

Hi, I'm setting up a 2-node Oracle 9i RAC on OCFS2. But I have some problems with understanding how the shared Oracle_Home is being used. For instance there is the *$ORACLE_HOME/oracm/admin/cmcfg.ora* file. The $ORACLE_HOME is on the SAN so the 2 nodes have access to this file. How will the settings then be done per node? Is there a guide/tutorial/howto for installing Oracle 9i RAC on

Is the order important when installing ocfs2 and Oracle RAC? If you have an existing RAC installation and you want to use ocfs2 for shared files but not for the OCR or Voting Disks, do you need to reinstall the Oracle Clusterware after installing OCFS2?

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Folks, We would like to evaluate how ocfs2 will work with a debian distribution. Most of our systems people favor debian and so we are evaluating whether debian and ocfs2 work nicely + oracle 10gR2 rac. I know that debian is not supported by Oracle, but this is only for testing. Has anyone had experience with this? If so can you provide

Hi, I sent an email to Mark Fisheh of Oracle Corp. & posted this issue at OTN under Linux thread this morning. I hope that someone among you might have experienced this and can help. On that basis, I am sending this to you too. I am stuck & will really appreciate if you can shed some light on this. Thanks. Anjan

Hi All, Scenario: I'm trying to install 9i rac on a 2 node cluster on OCFS2 OS: Oracle enterprise linux To my understanding, OCFS2 supports shared home installs which to my knowledge is not only can i have datafile and control files but also clustermanager files and binaries (pretty much everything: no files or executables need to kept local to any nodes). I have one single shared file for

Howdy, I am trying to setup a 10gR2 RAC on top of some nbd devices. OS is Centos4.1/i386, (2.6.9-11.0.0.10.3.EL, ocfs2-2.6.9-11.0.0.10.3.EL-1.0.4-1). ocfs2 setup went perfectly well, btw. (besides the fact that ocfs2console apparently ignores nbd disks) mount says /dev/nbd1 on /opt/oradata/data1 type ocfs2 (rw,_netdev) on both nodes ls says (after runInstaller was started, so the files were

Hi All, We are in the early stages of an Oracle E-Business Suite implementation running RHEL and are looking at different storage options. For production we are looking at a 4-Node RAC/10-Node Application tier and a 2-Node RAC/2-Node App tier for test. We would like to use OCFS for both RACs and shared APPL_TOPs (an E-Business features that lets you share a single copy of application code

On RHEL4 also, the service o2cb starts later than _netdev device mounts. So mount fails. Should the o2cb service start earlier to fix this?

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

hi, i am trying to install oracle rac on fedora core 6 through iscsi. when i try to mount, mount.ocfs2: Invalid argument while mounting /dev/mapper/rac-crs on /mnt/crs. Check 'dmesg' for more information on this error. error log in dmesg, ocfs2: Unmounting device (253,11) on (node 255) (27354,0):ocfs2_parse_options:753 ERROR: Unrecognized mount option "datavolume" or missing

We have a test 10gR2 RAC cluster using ocfs2 filesystems for the Clusterware files and the Database files. We need to increase the node slots to accomodate new RAC nodes. Is it true that we will need to umount these filesystems for the upgrade (i.e. Database and Clusterware also)? We are planning to use the following command format to perform the node slot increase: # tunefs.ocfs2 ?N 3

Dear Team, I came across one problem in Oracle RAC Database server with OCFS2 file system. When I manually un-plug the Ethernet cable of primary node, the secondary node automatically restarted.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Folks, When I installed ocfs2 the first time and setup oracle to work with it, the clustername defaulted to "ocfs2". We are testing adding new nodes, but we would like to add new nodes to the o2cb cluster in a different clustername. Do I need to do anything to keep that separate on the filesystem. I just want to make sure that when

Caveat: I know nothing in particular about Oracle RAC, but... Assuming that RAC uses something like SCSI reservations in order to share the disk, I would guess it doesn't like the disk being on the IDE

We wan't to setup two Oracle instance and make RAC work on them. Both VM are setup based on libvirt + KVM, we use a lvm lun which formated in qcow2 format and set the shareable properties in the disk driver like this: <disk type='block' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu' type='qcow2' cache='none'/> <source

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
