Table 6 Variables or Parameters in haoracle.conf file (continued)
DescriptionParameter Name
This parameter gives the list of all ASM disk groups used by the database
instance. This parameter must be set only for the ASM database instance
package.
NOTE: For ASM instance package, no value must be set for this parameter.
ASM_DISKGROUP
This parameter gives the list of volume groups used in the disk groups for the
ASM database instance. This parameter must be set only for the ASM database
instance package.
NOTE: For ASM instance package, no value must be set for this parameter.
ASM_VOLUME_GROUP
The home directory where ASM is installed. This parameter must be set for both
the ASM and the ASM database instance packages.
ASM_HOME
The user name of the Oracle ASM administrator. This parameter must be set
for both ASM instance and ASM database instance packages.
ASM_USER
The ASM session name. This uniquely identifies an ASM instance. If the database
instance package depends on the ASM MNP package, then this parameter
needs to be set for both the ASM and the database instance packages. This
parameter need not be set in case the database instance package depends on
the SGeRAC clusterware package (OC MNP). This parameter is set to "+ASM"
by default.
ASM_SID
Oracle database /ASM parameter file. If not specified, Oracle picks this up
from the Oracle configuration directory $ORACLE_HOME/dbs or
$ASM_HOME/dbs depending on the INSTANCE_TYPE.
PFILE
This parameter, when configured, overrides the default file or location. If both
PFILE and SPFILE are present and this parameter is not specified, then the Oracle
scripts will make use of PFILE as the parameter file. To make use of SPFILE in
the scripts, do not configure this parameter and remove the default PFILE from
its default location. This parameter must be set for both the ASM and the
database instance packages.
NOTE: For Oracle 11gR2, by default, the spfile of the ASM instance is stored
on the ASM diskgroup. This is true only for the ASM instance and not for the
database instance that uses the ASM diskgroup.For an ASM instance, the ECM
Toolkit cannot verify the existence of the spfile on the ASM diskgroup. So, it is
mandatory that a pfile is created from the spfile on the local disk, at a location
that ECMT can access. For 11gR2 ASM instance, the value of the PFILE attribute
must point to the pfile that is created on the local disk.
SPFILE
Set to "yes" if you want the scripts to start and stop the Oracle Listener. This
parameter must be set only in the database instance package.
LISTENER
The name of the listener process. This parameter must be set only in the database
instance package.
LISTENER_NAME
The password of the listener process. This parameter must be set only in the
database instance package.
LISTENER_PASS
The names of all processes that should be executing. This parameter must be
set for the ASM and the database instance packages. The description of this
attribute in the package configuration file has a sample of processes that must
be monitored for ASM and database instances.
