Using the Oracle Toolkit in a HP Serviceguard Cluster README Revision: B.06.00, August 2010

Halt the database instance and listener and ASM instance, (if
configured) on all
the nodes.
ii. Setting Up the Toolkit
The internal structure of the Oracle Toolkit Scripts is the same for
ASM Support
as well. Please refer to section C for information about the various
Oracle
toolkit scripts.
There are new variables introduced for ASM support, namely,
INSTANCE_TYPE, ASM, ASM_HOME,
ASM_USER, ASM_SID, ASM_DISKGROUP, ASM_VOLUME_GROUP and
KILL_ASM_FOREGROUNDS. The
following variables contained in haoracle.conf will help understanding
these
parameters better.
INSTANCE_TYPE: This parameter determines whether the
instance is an ASM instance or a database
instance. This can be set either to
"database" or "ASM" only. This parameter
must be set accordingly for both the
database and ASM instance packages.
ORACLE_HOME: The home directory of Oracle. This
parameter must be set only for the
database instance package.
ORACLE_ADMIN: User name of the Oracle database
administrator. Will be used for starting
and stopping of the database. This parameter
must be set only for the database
instance package.
SID_NAME: The Oracle session name. This is called the
session ID (SID). This parameter must be
set only for the database instance package.
This parameter is set to "oracle" by default.
ASM: This option determines whether Automatic
Storage Management (ASM) must be used to
manage the storage for the database instance.
This parameter can be set to either "yes" or
"no".
Set it to "yes" if an ASM database is being
used. In
all other cases, set it to no.
By default, this parameter is set to no.
ASM_DISKGROUP: This parameter gives the list of all ASM disk
