Support for the SGeRAC Toolkit
Chapter 260
Support for the SGeRAC Toolkit
The SGeRAC Toolkit provides documentation and scripts to simplify the
integration of SGeRAC and the Oracle 10g RAC stack. It also manages
the dependency between Oracle Clusterware and Oracle RAC instances
with a full range of storage management options supported in the
Serviceguard/SGeRAC environment.
The framework provided by the SGeRAC toolkit is unique in the high
level of multi-vendor (Oracle, Symantec, HP) and multi-storage platform
(CFS, CVM, SLVM, ASM over SLVM) integration it offers (on HP-UX
releases that support Veritas CFS and CVM; see “About Veritas CFS and
CVM from Symantec” on page 22).
The SGeRAC Toolkit uses Serviceguard/SGeRAC version A.11.17 (or
later) multi-node packages and package dependency features to provide
a uniform, intuitive, and easy-to-manage method to co-ordinate between
SGeRAC and Oracle Clusterware.
Additionally, the SGeRAC Toolkit helps to manage all the storage
options supported by SGeRAC; CFS, SLVM, CVM and ASM (over
SLVM).
