Creating a Storage Infrastructure with CFS
Chapter 272
In the example below, both the Oracle RAC software and datafiles reside
on CFS. There is a single Oracle home. Three CFS file systems are
created for Oracle home, Oracle datafiles, and for the Oracle Cluster
Registry (OCR) and vote device. The Oracle Cluster Software home is on
a local file system.
/cfs/mnt1 – for Oracle Base and Home
/cfs/mnt2 – for Oracle datafiles
/cfs/mnt3 - for OCR and Vote device
Initializing the Veritas Volume Manager
Use the following steps to create a two node SGeRAC cluster with CFS
and Oracle:
1. Initialize the Veritas Volume Manager
If not already done, install the VxVM license key on all nodes. Use
the following command:
# vxinstall
NOTE CVM 4.1 does not require rootdg
2. Create the Cluster ASCII file:
# cd /etc/cmcluster
# cmquerycl -C clm.asc -n ever3a -n ever3b
Edit Cluster file
3. Create the Cluster
# cmapplyconf -C clm.asc
4. Start the Cluster
# cmruncl
# cmviewcl
The following output will be displayed:
CLUSTER STATUS
