O. SGeRAC Toolkit Whitepaper Link
HP has published a whitepaper "Use of Serviceguard Extension For RAC Toolkit
with Oracle RAC 10g Release 2 or later" that contains the SGeRAC Toolkit
background and operation information. This whitepaper is posted on
http://www.hp.com/go/hpux-serviceguard-docs -> Serviceguard Extension for RAC.
Please note that this whitepaper has not been updated to include
documentation for the new ASMDG MNP.
There is another white paper "Support of Oracle RAC ASM with SGeRAC" that contains
details on ASM features and how to configure ASM with SGeRAC. This whitepaper is posted
on http://www.hp.com/go/hpux-serviceguard-docs -> Serviceguard Extension for RAC.
Conclusion
Using SGeRAC Toolkit with multi-node packages and simple package dependencies provides a
uniform, intuitive, and easy-to-manage method to perform the following:
• Co-ordinate between SGeRAC and Oracle Clusterware
• Manage all the storage options supported by SGeRAC -CFS, SLVM, CVM , ASM over SLVM
and ASM over raw device (on HP-UX 11i v3)
Although the concepts of resource dependency and resource aggregation delivered by SGeRAC
with the multi-node package and simple package dependency features are present in some form
or other in other clusterware products—including Oracle Clusterware—the framework provided
by SGeRAC is unique due to the high level of multi-vendor (Oracle, Symantec, HP) and multi-storage
platform (CFS, SLVM, CVM, ASM over SLVM, ASM over raw device) integration it offers.
