60 Configuring Database Storage on the Host
To verify that each node can detect each storage LUN or logical disk:
1 For the Dell/EMC Fibre Channel storage system, verify that the EMC
Navisphere agent and the correct version of PowerPath are installed on
each node. Verify that each node is assigned to the correct storage group in
the EMC Navisphere software. For instructions, see the documentation
that came with your Dell/EMC Fibre Channel storage system.
NOTE: If you are installing the cluster or reinstalling the software on a node,
you must perform
step 1.
2 Visually verify that the storage devices and the nodes are connected
correctly to the Fibre Channel switch (see
Figure 3-1 and Ta b le 3-1).
3 Verify that you are logged in as root .
4 On each node , type:
more /proc/partitions
The node detects and displays the LUNs or logical disks, as well as the
partitions created on these external devices.
NOTE: The listed devices vary depending on how your storage system
is
configured.
A list of the LUNs or logical disks that are detected by the node is
displayed, as well as the partitions that are created on those external
devices. PowerPath pseudo devices appear in the list, such as
/dev/emcpowera , /dev/emcpowerb , and /dev/emcpowerc .
In the case of a direct-attached SAS, or iSCSI configurations, the virtual
disks appear as
/dev/sdb and /dev/sdc .
