D. Support for Oracle ASM instance and Oracle database with ASM
Automatic Storage Management (ASM) is a feature in Oracle Database
10g/11g
that provides the database administrator with a simple storage
management
interface that is consistent across all server and storage platforms.
This section describes the High Availability Scripts for Oracle ASM
support with Serviceguard. Support is for Automatic Storage Management
(ASM)
over LVM where the ASM disk group members are raw logical volumes
managed by
LVM.
Following are the supported versions of HP Serviceguard:
* A.11.19
* A.11.20
Oracle versions supported with ASM are 10.2.0.4, 11.1.0.6 and 11.1.0.7
with interim
patches 7330611 and 7225720 installed. Before these patches were
released by
Oracle, ASM kept descriptors open on ASM disk group member volumes even
after
the ASM disk group had been dismounted. This prevented the deactivation
of the
LVM volume groups. These two patches address the ASM descriptor issue
and
meets the Serviceguard requirement for supporting ASM. Oracle version
11gR2
is also supported but does not require interim patches to be installed.
