Step-by-Step Cluster Conversion
Database Configuration
Chapter 3 183
OR940 Oracle Step:
Additional steps for Oracle 10g RDBMS:
Even though no cluster services are needed when installing a Oracle 10g
Single Instance, the cluster services daemon
($ORACLE_HOME/bin/ocssd.bin) is installed. It will remain running,
even when the database is shut down. This keeps the file system busy
during package shut down. Therefore it is mandatory that the cluster
services daemon is disabled.
Comment or remove the following entry in /etc/inittab:
# h1:3:respawn:/sbin/init.d/init.cssd run >/dev/null 2>&1
</dev/null
Additionally there is a init script in /sbin/init.d:
/sbin/init.d/init.cssd
that is linked to by
/sbin/rc3.d/S<###>init.cssd
and
/sbin/rc3.d/K<###>init.cssd
Remove the following referenced links to prevent the Oracle Cluster
Services Daemon from initiating during boot time.
# rm /sbin/rc3.d/S<###>init.cssd
# rm /sbin/rc3.d/K<###>init.cssd
