Using Serviceguard Extension for RAC, 8th Edition, March 2009

NOTE: The default maximum number of volume groups in HP-UX version 2.0 is 10. If you
intend to create enough new volume groups that the total exceeds ten, you must increase the
maxvgs system parameter and then re-boot the system. Use the kctune utility to change kernel
parameter area, then choose Configurable Parameters, maxvgs appears on the list.
Creating Logical Volumes for RAC on Disk Arrays
After you create volume groups and add PV links to them, you define logical volumes for data,
logs, and control files. The following are some examples:
# lvcreate -n ops1log1.log -L 4 /dev/vg_ops
# lvcreate -n opsctl1.ctl -L 4 /dev/vg_ops
# lvcreate -n system.dbf -L 28 /dev/vg_ops
# lvcreate -n opsdata1.dbf -L 1000 /dev/vg_ops
Oracle Demo Database Files
The following set of files is required for the Oracle demo database, which can be created during
the installation process.
