HP Serviceguard Storage Management Suite Version A.02.01 for HP-UX 11i v2 Release Notes, Edition 2 (May 2010)
Oracle Disk Manager (ODM) with VxFS and LVM
• What is the limitation? ODM for VxFS file systems on LVM volumes is not supported.
• What is the workaround? Oracle Files that need ODM capability should reside on a VxFS file
system created on a VxVM/CVM volume.
Oracle Disk Manager Limitation for Bundles T2776CA, T2796CA, T2777CA, and
T2797CA
• What is the limitation? Single instance Oracle databases are not permitted outside of
Serviceguard packages in environments using T2776CA, T2796CA, T2777CA, and T2797CA.
If there are any Oracle instances not controlled by Serviceguard packages, a halt of the system
multi-node package SG-CFS-pkg could bring down the node or cluster.
• What is the workaround? Place all Oracle single instances in Serviceguard packages when
deploying these bundles. In addition, single instance Oracle packages using VxFS and VxVM
must have a direct dependency on the system multi-node package SG-CFS-pkg.
