HP Serviceguard Enterprise Cluster Master Toolkit User Guide, December 2012 (5900-2145)
/dev/vx/dsk/DG0_ORACLE_TEST0/lvol1 (the logical volume)
/dev/vx/dsk/DG0_ORACLE_TEST0/lvol1 (the filesystem)
mounted at /ORACLE_TEST0
If you are using CFS
Make sure that the Serviceguard CFS packages are running so that the Oracle package can access
CFS mounted file systems. For more information on how to configure Servicegaurd CFS packages,
see Serviceguard Manual. Create a directory /ORACLE_TEST0 on all cluster nodes. Mount the
CFS file system on /ORACLE_TEST0 using the Servicegurad CFS packages. Use /ORACLE_TEST0
to hold the necessary configuration information and symbolic links to the Oracle executables.
• Considering that Oracle is installed in /home/oracle, create symbolic links to all
subdirectories under /home/oracle. You must not install the dbs directory (dbs
contains important instance configuration files, and should reside in the shared storage in
${SID_NAME}, for example, /ORACLE_TEST0/dbs).
• Test the setup to ensure Oracle can be properly brought up. Log on as 'oracle' user. Set
environment variables ORACLE_HOME to /home/oracle and ORACLE_SID to ORACLE_TEST0.
Test Oracle to ensure that it can be properly started.
$ sqlplus '/ as sysdba'
SQL> startup
SQL> exit
After few minutes, check for the existence of Oracle processes (there should be several,
identified by "ora_")
$ ps -fu oracle
Bring down the database,
$ sqlplus '/ as sysdba'
SQL> shutdown immediate
SQL> exit
If you are using LVM - unmount and deactivate the volume group,
$ umount /ORACLE_TEST0
$ vgchange -a n /dev/vg0_ORACLE_TEST0
If you are using VxVM - unmount and deport the disk group,
$ umount /ORACLE_TEST0
$ vxdg deport /dev/vx/dsk/DG0_ORACLE_TEST0
To configure and run the package, and to ensure Oracle can be brought up and down, repeat
these steps on all other cluster nodes.
• Create the Serviceguard package using legacy method.
The following steps in this section describes the method for creating the Serviceguard package
using the legacy method. For information on creating the Serviceguard package using the
modular method, see Modular package support in Serviceguard for Linux and ECM Toolkits
available at http://www.hp.com/go/hpux-serviceguard-docs —>HP Serviceguard Enterprise
Cluster Master Toolkit.
$ mkdir /etc/cmcluster/pkg/ORACLE_TEST0
Copy the toolkit files from Oracletoolkit
$ cd /etc/cmcluster/pkg/ORACLE_TEST0/
$ cp /opt/cmcluster/toolkit/oracle/*
Create a package configuration file (ORACLE_TEST0.conf) and package control script
(ORACLE_TEST0.cntl) as follows:
$ cmmakepkg -p ORACLE_TEST0.conf
$ cmmakepkg -s ORACLE_TEST0.cntl
