Terms Definition

CFS Cluster File System allows multi-system shared access to common file system.

Complex Workload Package A multi-instance application that uses active resources across multiple nodes in a

cluster. These workloads are configured using multiple inter-dependent multi-

node or failover packages in a cluster. The workloads need to be managed and

moved collectively for disaster tolerance.

MNP Multi-node package, a Serviceguard package that runs on multiple nodes at the

same time and can be independently started and halted on individual nodes

OC Oracle Clusterware can run in conjunction with Serviceguard Extension for RAC

and can provide Oracle cluster membership and resource management services.

OCR Oracle Cluster Registry

RAC Real Application Cluster enables a multi-instance concurrent shared access

database.

SADTA Site Aware Disaster Tolerant Architecture (SADTA) enables deploying complex

workloads in a Metrocluster. Complex workloads are applications configured

using multi-node and failover packages with dependencies. These packages,

referred to as complex-workload packages, are configured over isolated sub-

clusters, such as Oracle Clusterware, or Serviceguard Management Suite (SG

SMS) Cluster File System, which are created within the Metrocluster. Sub-clusters

have access only to the storage arrays within their respective sites.

SG SMS Serviceguard Storage Management Suite Software

SGeRAC Serviceguard Extension for RAC extends Serviceguard to support Oracle RAC.

Site Controller Package A Metrocluster failover package to provide coordinated automatic site failover

for the configured complex workload. It is created using a Metrocluster modular

package module: dts/sc.

Voting Disk Shared storage used by Oracle Clusterware as vote tie breaker and for disk-

based heartbeat
