Using Serviceguard Extension for RAC, 10th Edition, April 2011
on a specified node. To halt the MNP, use cmhaltpkg to halt all instances, or
use cmhaltpkg with the option "-n nodeName" to halt a single instance on a
specified node. If the package configuration parameter AUTO_RUN is set to yes,
the MNP will be started automatically when the cluster starts up or when the node
joins the cluster. After the Oracle Clusterware and RAC instances are started in
the MNP packages, users should not manage (halt or restart) Oracle Clusterware and
RAC instances outside of the package, otherwise the package could fail.
If a node is added to the cluster and will run a RAC instance, the OC MNP
and ASMDG MNP and the corresponding RAC MNP must be modified and reapplied
to add the node into the package configuration. If a node running the RAC
instance is deleted from the cluster, the OC MNP and ASMDG MNP and the
corresponding RAC MNP must be modified and reapplied to delete the node
from the package configuration.
If TKIT_SCRIPT_DIR is not set to default value, copy the new OC MNP, ASMDG MNP
and RAC MNP scripts to the TKIT_SCRIPT_DIR directory from the respective
location of /opt/cmcluster/SGeRAC/toolkit/ when an SGeRAC upgrade is done or
when an SGeRAC patch is installed.
If a node running the OC MNP and RAC MNP is to be shutdown via command
/etc/shutdown, users should run "cmhaltnode -f" first to cleanly halt the
cluster before issuing the shutdown command.
If the Oracle Clusterware or RAC software is being upgraded then it is
recommended to bring down the OC MNP, ASMDG MNP (if configured) and RAC MNP
packages and start Oracle Clusterware and Database using Oracle commands
crsctl and srvctl. After completion of the upgrade, update (if there are any
changes) the configuration files of the above mentioned packages as needed
and restart the packages.
H. SGeRAC Toolkit Supported Configurations
This version of Toolkit supports the following configurations. The maximum
number of nodes supported in SGeRAC Toolkit depends on the number of nodes
supported by SGeRAC with each storage management configuration. Refer to
"Number of nodes supported in SGeRAC for SLVM, CVM and CFS Matrix" posted on
http://www.hp.com/go/hpux-serviceguard-docs -> Serviceguard Extension for RAC.

I. SGeRAC Toolkit Q & A
There are two configuration scenarios in this version of SGeRAC Toolkit.
Question 1:
In some configurations, the customer may not want to configure a RAC MNP
package, but instead wants Oracle Clusterware to control the startup of the
Oracle RAC instances, is this supported by the SGeRAC Toolkit?
Answer 1:
Yes, in this case, the customer can follow the setup steps in section F with
exception of steps 5, 13-18. and configure only the OC MNP using the SGeRAC
Toolkit, then the Istartup of OC MNP will bring up the Oracle RAC instance
also.
Question 2:
How to start a user defined Oracle Service in an SGeRAC Toolkit environment?
